10 Months and Growing

 

Jack had his ten month well child check last week.  Technically, it was his nine month well child check, but I forgot he actually should have been scheduled for a full checkup, not just shots (whoops!).  So it was just a little late.  Here were the results:


WEight:  21 pounds, 15.5 ounces, 59th percentile.
Height:  30 1/4 inches, 89th percentile
Head Circumerence:  19 inches, 97th percentile. 




Yup. 97th percentile in head circumference. That means he is
 very strong in all of the "head" categories....you know, he's really smart. He's mentally very strong, or, um, well, stubborn. His temper is quick to flair and quick to heal back into delicious smiles. You can just see it all in these pictures of our struggle over the camera.

"Oh, the camera!"

"Give it to me!"

"Mamma, I'm getting mad, just give it to me!!"

Oh, mad face didn't work...I'll try happy face again!

He wasn't as "smart" at his 6 month check up...

Head circumference was only 96%. 
And height was 73% (19 pounds, 5 ounces) and he was almost 28 inches long (83%).

Brayden remains the kitchen's greatest helper!  We even made him an apron out of an old "diaper".

He worked on this apple shirt with Auntie Deandra; She knows how much he loooves apples! I can't wait for his three year well child check!

Since summer is still caught here providing us with 80-90 degree days, we've been playing in the leaves a lot.

Long live nice weather!

(But I wouldn't mind a little cooler with some rain to end our drought...)
