Big Boy - 18 Month Check Up

Eli had his 18 month check up at the doctor today. He was such a big boy, walking in with Mama and holding her hand. As soon as we got into the exam room, all that changed and I had a kicking, screaming, strong little guy on my hands!

Little?



I have no idea how the nurse weighed him as he was flailing around so much, but he is up to 29 pounds, 4 ounces. That puts him in the 87th percentile for weight. He is not overweight, as the doctor made it clear to me that he is a robust, healthy boy!

Eli has so many words now and he seems to pick up new words daily. I can't believe how fast it is happening!

We don't go back to the doctor for 6 months now. I think I am going to start having separation anxiety for Dr. Nishiyama! Not to worry - I am sure our little bruiser will have us back there before December with something - here's hoping it is a cold or something small. I can only take so much!

I am so grateful for our healthy, happy little guy!!
