12-Month Check-up

Hey guys,

We finally scheduled and made it to Adam's 12-month check-up. Everything seems good. He's in the 70th percentile pretty much across the board and at 30 inches long, he only has two more inches before Mom and Dad have to go find him the next car seat up. The poor thing did have to get stuck four times though: three vaccines and one iron test (which turned out fine).

Other than all of that, he's doing well. We're weaning him back to his bed after allowing him to sleep with us while he was sick....which is less than fun. Also, he's been switched mainly over to whole milk. I debated for a while over whether or not to try and stand by feeding him some alternative, like almond milk, but, as the doctor confirmed, for the time being, whole milk has a lot that he needs that the others just don't have, particularly the fats for his brain development. Oh well, it'll be cheaper than formula either way and as long as he's healthy and it's the right  thing for him, why should I be upset?

Let's see...last but not least, he is trying to stand some more and seems somewhat more aware as he plays. He's even starting to enjoy pushing his little cars all over the living room.

Sorry, no pictures tonight, but you can rest assured that he's as cute as ever and would give you the goofiest, sweetest smile right now if he could.

Love you guys,
Cheers!
