18mth Checkup

Today I took Brennan to his 18mth appt. Yes, yes, I know his is now 19mths, but we had to take care of some insurance paperwork first before we could schedule it. Brennan is now 24lbs 7oz which is 25%, 34" long at 95% and again his head was 25%. I'm pretty sure they measured his height wrong because there is no way he only grew 1/2". He really didn't like being pinned down though, since last time we were there they put eye drops in, and that was only a couple of weeks ago.  She asked if he could say 8 words and he proceed to say these words though out the appt: fishy, moon, star, eye, baby, seat, mouth, up, ear, water, tea, thank you. She laughed and said yeah, he definitely has the 8 down. And he is also able to follow simple instructions, feeds himself, and can use a spoon. Yup, all milestones covered. Brennan also needed two shots  today. After receiving them, he told the nurse thank you. I'm sure it was a "thank you, I'm all done" and a "no more please", kind of a thank you. But it still made me and the nurse laugh. Next appt is his 2yr, wow how time has flown.
