He had his doctor appointment today and everything went well. He still loves his doctor and was all smiles and showing him things-I was relieved as I thought he would remember last time and cry the whole appointment. I don't think he associates his doctor with shots, just the nurses, whom he is more leery about. He did cry when the nurse weighed him, plus another baby was screaming his/her head off down he hall and he was pretty worried. So all in all he was healthy and growing on track.
Drum roll.....His weight was 22# 11oz. and still in the 10th % and I was thrilled to hear he had a growth spurt and was 32 in. That puts him in the 25%tile. Not that I was worried before, but I couldn't help thinking of my dad's grandpa who was 4ft. 11 in. I just found that out recently and would not want my son to be that short-for his sake. (: Head size was 90%-yay lots of brains!
It is fun to think he is entering toddlerhood-lots of joys and I am sure some challenges as he learns his way through the world and hearing No No more frequently. (:

Lorrie, unless you have another baby, you'll always think of Sawyer as 'the baby'. I still do with Mitch. He's still my little guy. Maybe it's because he would love to crawl back in the warm, cozy whomb if he could. :)
Awww...my little Sawyer! I'm so proud of his growth spurt. Must be all the chips I feed him! JUST KIDDING!!! :)
awww what a sweetie! Glad you had such a good appt with no shots :) WOW- 32 inches! I think Mara was 28 inches at her 18 month appt...we'll see how much she has grown on the 23rd. I think-hope- she weighs about the same...at least 21 pounds :)
