1st year physical!

Big boy Drew had his one-year physical today. I find myself gleaming with pride as he did so well ~ especially considering he had his MMR vaccination, Hepatitis A vaccination, AND they drew blood for lead testing.

So, what news do we have to share? Drew weighs in at 23 pounds (50th percentile) and is 29 and 3/4 inches long (50th percentile). He may be average in size, but I'd like to think he's excelling in other areas of development. He's walking well, babbling, curiously exploring new areas, displaying his sense of humor, embracing new challenges (ie. shape sorters), reading - or at least turning pages while babbling, engaging socially with others, eating & sleeping well, and demonstrating a high level of understanding. Hey-I'm his mom. I'm entitled to brag once in a while, right?!?
