Noah's three year appointment was at the beginning of the month. He is 42.5 lbs and 41" tall. They did the hearing and vision tests and the nurse was very impressed. She said usually at this age, they can hear the sounds but not figure out which ear they're hearing it in, and he did great. The vision test was very interesting for me, but not the eye part. His vision is fine, but what they do at that age is show the pictures up close first to see what the child will call each object. So Noah said "apple" and "house" just fine, and then circle was "round" and square was "round." She went back and forth on those a couple of times and then said, "are those two shapes the same?" He started to say yes, and then emphatically said No! So I told him that that shape was called a square and he repeated it. Then for the real test, a square was the first object. He hesitated, and then she reminded him of the name. After that, he named each object perfectly. At first, it rather bothered me that Noah didn't know the simple shape names, but it just means we haven't gotten to that part yet. He knows his colors and lots of other things. So now he knows the name for a square. (: (More)
