We went to the doctor yesterday for his well child visit. Here are stats for those interested:
Weight: 17 lbs and 6 oz. That puts him in the 10th percentile. (He's my little peanut.)
Height: 28 inches long. That is about the 50th percentile (He had quite the growth spurt since last time in this category.)
He unfortunately has a little cold and I think he might be cutting some new teeth. He is unusually cuddly in the last few days. His eyes got really gunky, so the doctor prescribed some eye drops--those are fun to give him. (Note the sarcasm.) It was easy the first time, now he knows to shut his eyes when he sees the bottle. I have a smart one on my hands.
Finally, he is starting to pull himself up on things. He sits on his knees, which I find slightly amusing. Yesterday, when we put him to bed he cried a little longer than usual, so I went to check on him and there he was sitting on his knees, about ready to pull himself up. (The mattress will be lowered shortly.) Here he is on his knees. You will also see the mirror we bought for him...he likes being held up to the mirror in the bathroom, but it is hard for us to really let him do that, since we don't have a counter to let him stand on beneath our mirror, so we got a cheap one to set on the ground for him.
Here he is with Lewis the bear at 9 months.
