18 month check-up...just a month late!

Alex's 18 month check-up went well today. He is on the small side but everything looks proportional so that is good. He weighed 21 lbs. which is in the 3% and his height was 5%. He got two shots and cried a little but did good overall. Here are some pics of Alex entertaining himself while we waited in the room for the nurse to give the shots.

Alex pushed the chair all over the room... He tore the paper on the table to shreds...
and then threw it all over the place...
but it kept him busy and happy!!

He actually read a book, ate a snack, and played with his car while we waited too. It took the nurse a while but that was ok because I thought his appt was at 9:30 and before we went to get in the car at 9:10 I looked at the appt card to make sure I knew the floor that the office was on and the card said his appt was at 9am (as did my calendar!) Anyways...I called the office and they said it was fine to just go ahead and come on in. I'm glad they were flexible but I still felt bad, since at my work we sometimes roll our eyes (in our head of course) at people who are late and have excuses like that!!

I also had an appointment at the Dr. today and all is looking good with baby Biddlecome! The heart rate continues to be 150 bpm! I had to reschedule the gender ultrasound, which was ok with me because I got to move it up. We go on Jan. 20th to find out if this little one is a girl or a boy!!
