Obviously this photo wasn't taken at Anthony's 12 month "well-baby" visit.And yes, "well-baby" is indeed in quotes for a reason. When we came in for his appointment he had a runny nose from catching Bob's cold. He also was wheezing so we bought a nebulizer. We rented one when he was sick a few weeks ago, but I think its time for us to own one so that when he's sick in the night again we can treat him immediately. Oh yeah, he also had a black eye.
He weighed in at 23 pounds, 7 ounces which is about 55th percentile. He was 30 1/2 inches long, 75th percentile. Essentially he's slimmed down a bit for his height. Its funny, he doubled his birthweight in 3 1/2 months, but in 12 months has not quite tripled it. I knew his weight gain would slow, but boy did it!
Anthony got his MMR, flu shot and chicken pox vaccinations. He didn't cry at all for the first two shots, but the MMR did make him scream. The nurse offered him a sticker when we were leaving, but I don't think he needs to be eating stickers quite yet.
As for what he's playing with in this picture.... I asked Bob and he said, "It is Super-Binky." Of course I had no idea what Super-Binky is. (Its the lid to a Nubby sippy cup.)
