One year Well Baby

Vaughn had his one year appointment today. The theme lately is that he is just growing so fast. Not only is he getting heavier and (a little) taller, he is changing in other ways like how he screamed his head off when getting measured. Going to the doctor never bothered him...until now.

Here are his current stats:
Weight: 21.14 lbs. = 36.0% Woah!
Height: 29 1/4 inches = 33%
Head: 18 1/2 inches

He had no problem getting his shots. In fact, he cried less from them did he did with the whole measuring thing and having the stethoscope on his back. I did well, too, because daddy was there. Every time the Medical Assistant would leave the room and come back, Vaughn would just glare at her. Such a drastic difference from how he used to act.

Everything else went well. He is right on track. He's not walking quite yet, but he is taking one step here and there and standing on his own a lot. The only question I really asked her was about how much he eats. I mean, he went from 17 pounds in July and is 21 pounds now. That's a lot of weight gain in just a few months. She said to let him eat as much as he wants, but to maybe slow him down so he can feel full. The boy will just eat and eat and eat. Thankfully, he likes fruit and vegetables and eats and eats them. His new favorites are edamame and black beans! Mmmm, protein.
