15 months update

The kiddo had his 15 month well baby appointment yesterday.  He currently weighs 27 pounds and is 31 inches long... Yikes, he really is more than half my length now!  I was somewhat concerned about his weight, but according to Dr. Buzz (OK, not his name, but I swear! his doctor looks like Buzz Lightyear - -click here to see how he looks) there's no reason for me to worry about his weight...he's proportioned just fine.  Relief.  I thought I'd have to put my lil 15 month old on a baby diet.  
For the first time yesterday, he got weighed on the regular scale..not the baby scale.  He looked like such a big boy as he stood on the scale.  And wouldn't you know it, my freaken hormones kicked in and I kinda got teary to see him being weighed like a big kid.
He got 2 shots and took them like a trooper.  He didn't cry, but he sure hated being held down by his daddy and the nurse!  On the way home, he decided to pull one of the bandages off.  He inspected it then probably thought that the lil dot of red was some cherry flavored drop because he popped it in his mouth and started gnawing.  My lil blood sucker!
Next week we go back to the clinic.  Only this time it's to find out if we are having a lil brother or sister for the kiddo! Yay! yay!

I"m pretty sure they should have his size. If they don't, I'm sure Toys R Us does :D
