1 Year Check Up

B-Boy went back to the doctor for his one year checkup. He had to get two more shots for immunizations and he also got his first flu shot. Since it was his first he has to go back for one more in a month. He did really well with getting them, and bounced back pretty quickly.

He also got his ears and eyes checked- all the fun poky stuff that doctors like to do.

Where are you going to put that?

Um, Dad? Why is Mommy documenting this with a photo?
Cuz that's what she does son. Get used to it.

B-Boy is right where he should be developmentally. YAY! The doctor says we should not be concerned that he doesn't say much verbally, since he is growing like a weed, and is obviously developing in other ways. His vocabulary at this point is made up of

  • Kitty
  • Kitty Cat
  • Dada (although we don't think he gets that it means Daddy yet)
  • Nu-uh
  • Uh-oh


Oh yeah, he gets uh-oh means something fell, but doesn't get that it means it is unintentional. Why do I say that? Because he will stand in his crib, look at me and say Uh-Oh... and then throw his paci onto the floor below. Nice.

But back to the doctor's appointment. I know you are wondering what his stats are now, and so without further delay- here they are.

He was 27 pounds and 33 inches long.

Yep, you read that right. Is it no wonder that he is wearing 2T (and sometimes 3T) shirts and size 18 month pants and shorts? Baby boy is a healthy boy, who is way too tall for our own good. Child proofing continues on a rapid pace!

B-Boy's six month checkup

B-Boy went to the doctor again on Wednesday. But not because he was sick... it was time for his six month checkup!

He got weighed and measured. He is 20.2 pounds and 28.5 inches long! I think he would have been heavier, but he was eating half of what he had been while he was sick... Incidentally, he is much better now!

Neb played with him while we waited to be seen. He was trying to see if B-Boy would be interested in a small object, and if he would try to pick it up. It is a milestone skill and was on the evaluation we needed to fill out. And guess what? He can! It was really cute to watch!

Hey Mom, look at me sitting up!

Oh, you have pincher thingies too!

He got 2 of his 4 shots and 1 liquid vaccination. He wasn't happy but after a quick bottle and snuggle, life was good again!
