Brody's 1 year well baby visit

We took Brody to the doctor yesterday for his one year check up and all looks good! As usual, the doctor was a solid hour late, but he always spends a lot of time with us so I guess we won't complain (too much). Brody is now 30.25" tall (75th percentile), has a 40" head (off the charts) and his weight plummeted to 22lbs (35th percentile). The doctor wasn't concerned about the weight given that we weaned recently and he's slowly adjusting to milk from a sippy cup. His shots didn't go over so well. We had an older nurse who proved that experience isn't always best - boy, was she slow! He's been quite irritable the past two days, but he slept GREAT last night so I can't complain! He even skipped his morning milk (usually about 6 or 7am) and slept solid until 9!

Yeah, for a great visit. Aren't the peds the worst, we wait forever at our Dr.too and of course you have to go so often doesn't make it any easier. Cadence still isn't even 21lbs yet, oh well. I still find it so interesting that siblings (Jacob/Brody)in general can be complete opposite. Thumbs up ( = like this in FB terms) to sleeping in!
