This week has been chaotic because of many activities: painting, cleaning, starting school. Because of this, I completely forgot about Jude's 15 month check-up that was on Monday. Complete forgot in that it randomly occurred to me that we missed at that night while I was giving the boys their baths.
I apologetically called the office on Tuesday morning only to learn that they are so booked that it wouldn't be until November until we could get him in, which would be his 18month check up. I then learned that he still needed several shots and that they would do that on the fly if we stopped into the office that morning. So, I headed to work and Brian took the boys to the pediatrician's office.
Luckily, when they got there our doctor had a free moment and went ahead and gave Jude his check-up anyways :-) Brian told me that the boys did really well and that Tam was very inquisitive about all the things the doctor was doing to little Jude. (And in the end, Tam told him he loved him). Jude was a happy camper for the entire trip...up until the shots. The little mite got 3 needles and a nasal mist spurt. I heard that Tam held Jude's hand to help him through this horrible experience.
I came home later to see that Jude had recovered and was sporting a pair of bright orange band-aids on his thighs.
As to Jude's stats? Is he growing? Is he healthy?
Oh, yeah. We are very blessed with a pretty healthy family and Jude is fine. He has a bit of extra earwax in his ears but otherwise he is growing along at a good rate.
Height: 31.5 inches
Weight: 22 lbs and 8 ounces
This places Jude in the 50th percentile for both. In case your wondering, and I was, Tamlin was a few ounces heavier and an inch taller at this age.
He's a growing little boy ;-)
