Last Thursday (on Peter's first birthday), both boys had doctors appointments.
Aaron's appointment was a weight check to make sure he was gaining since leaving the hospital. When Peter was born we had to do this for six weeks, because Peter wouldn't gain anything, but little Aaron was already 4 ounces above his birth weight! The good news there was that we don't have to bring him to get weighed anymore, but the bad news is that his next appointment will be for shots.
Speaking of shots, Peter had to get 2 during his appointment (not a great birthday present). He took them like and man and only cried briefly. His measurements were as follows:
Head circumference - 18 inches - 30 percentile
Height - 31 inches - 80 percentile
Weight - 19 pounds, 6 ounces - 8 percentile
So, as you can see Peter is still a string bean! Hopefully he will grow into his height soon, but Brett is delighted to have a "tall" child.
