Evan - 10.5 months

This morning Evan had his 9 month check up. It was late since we were out of town for the entire month of June and this was the soonest that we could get in for a well check. He did great for his visit today. He got a round of shots since I always wait until my kids are 4 months old to start shots. Aaron also got the last of his boosters so that he can start school here in a few weeks. Evan is growing by leaps and bounds! Here are his stats from today:

Weight: 23 lbs, 3 oz - 70%

Height: 31.5 inches - 97%

Head: 19.37 in - 99%

He is doing great developmentally. He is babbling, (although not as much as some of my other kids) he loves to feed himself and eats all table foods. He never really has liked baby food other than the puff cereal and freeze dried fruit kind of things. He has 4 teeth- 2 on top, 2 on bottom. He LOVES to walk. He is getting better and better at it. He prefers walking to crawling. He puts himself to sleep at night and for naps. The only concern was that his iron was at the very lowest level of acceptable. They will re-check it at his 1 year check. Until then, they gave us a list of foods to have Evan eat to boost his iron. It should be fine though!! :) I am not too worried. So basically, he is growing like a weed and is happy as a clam!!! :D
