Parker had his 15 month doctor's appointment today. He is 31 inches tall (25th - 50th percentile) & 23 lb, 12oz (25th - 50th). So 2 things, he isn't growing quite so fast now, & I have been way off on his weight...I have been telling people for a while now that he was about 26 lbs. - whoops. When people say that they slow down on their growing after they turn 1, that's very true...he's only gained 6 oz. since his 12 month check-up. But the Dr. says that's normal.
Since his flu shot from last week was still fresh on his mind, he went from happy to screaming as we walked into the exam room. He of course screamed & cried when he got his shots, poor little guy. But when we were leaving, standing at the check-out desk, he was standing there, holding my hand, just looking around, when all of a sudden the nurse who gave him his shots today came around the corner & Parker LOST it & started screaming. It was too funny not to laugh, all of the ladies in the office were cracking up too.
He still only says a couple of words, "Dad", & "Yea" are pretty much his vocab right now. Everytime the dogs bark & run to the door, everytime the phone rings, everytime the doorbell rings, he points to the door, looks at me & says "Dad??". He used to say MaMa & Dog but those have all but been forgotten since his Daddy has become his most favorite person. But I love it, his daddy is so proud.
Here he is today eating his favorite, bananas.
