9 Month Check-Up

This afternoon, we took Tommy to the doctors office for his 9 month check-up. They had to prick his heel and give him 1 shot - he did great for both things - only crying for a few seconds.

The doctor also wants us to continue doing the steriod breathing treatment until our next appointment in 2 weeks to rule out allegeries. We also don't have to do tubes YET - but if Tommy gets one more ear infection we will have to get them.

Here are the stats from his appointment:

• Weight - 21 lb. 7 oz. (62%)
• Height - 28 in. (50%)
• Head Circ. - 18 in. (61%)

Tommy is doing a lot of cute/new things right now:

• Makes a Cheerio mouth (that's what my dad calls it) when he gets excited
• Crawls backward (he can go forward a little and he rocks a lot)
• Has 4 teeth (the 2 front bottom ones and the 2 eye teeth on the top)
• Screams when he gets excited (started this a couple days ago)
• Experimenting with Stage 3 foods - he loves the pasta ones
• Drinks juice out of a sippy cup
• Likes holding his "clean" diaper for us when we change him

Happy even after a breathing treatment
