Just a quick update to let everyone know that Grant had his 1 year appointment at the doctor today. He's doing great (although he actually has a cold right now) and is now 21 lbs, 4 oz and 29.5" tall. He actually made it up to the 50% percentile in height! My big boy!! He got a few shots and a test for tuberculosis and lead and we were on our way. He's been drinking milk during the day now and only has 2 bottles (morning and night). He's cleared to eat anything (although I guess I slipped when I gave him peanut butter a couple weeks ago...was supposed to wait until 1 year. oops), unless of course it's a choking hazard . He's doing well with his motor skills (as most of you have seen) walking all over the place and everywhere. He's also figured out how to just get up instead of crawling over to the couch and leaning on it to get up. Now he just kneels and gets up to stand. Crazy.
As far as pictures go I haven't taken many. I think Eamonn might have a better one of Grant at Eataly, which we visited on Saturday, but I do have this one of G's first trip on the PATH. He seemed to like it okay.
I also have this video of him at the open gym in Hoboken. There's a community center a couple blocks away that opens up one of the gymnasiums on Fridays in the winter. Last week was our first week going as I thought Grant might be too young. He totally proved me wrong and was walking all over the place. He loved it! And I love any opportunity to get out of the house.
Glad to hear Grant's visit to the doctor went well. He is getting taller! Cute picture of him on the PATH (I was never on the PATH until I was in my thirties -- he's got me beat by a mile). Looks like he really enjoyed playing with the ball at the gym.
ReplyDeleteGrant's a champ! Crazy to see him so active...last time we were with him, he wasn't even really crawling yet!
ReplyDeleteAnd the PATH picture is adorable : )
