Noah's 15 month Well Baby Visit

Yesterday Noah had his 15 month well baby visit. Nothing too exciting. A couple of shots, which Noah did very well. The first one, he was like "What was that?" following by the crying. The second was like "Why did you do it AGAIN?" and more crying. And then came the Snoopy band-aid and he was happy again..haha!

His weight was 21 pounds even and length of 29 inches. Compare this with 3 months ago at his 12 month visit, he has gained almost 3 pounds....3 pounds!!! That's 1 pound a month and really good growth considering how little he was gaining before. I contribute this to his really good eating habits. For length, he has gained .75 inches. Not a ton, but it's some. He's always going to be short.

Otherwise, everything else looks good. Noah is a little behind in his teeth (he only has 6) but doctor thinks a bunch will pop out VERY soon. Yay for teething!

I also want to mention that Noah is doing really well in daycare right now. I don't remember if I mentioned that I thought he was ready to move up into the 1 year old but because there isn't enough room in there until August when all the kids move up, he had to stay put in the nursery. Well they hired a new nursery worker and she has opened up the 3rd room in the nursery which now consists of 4 of the "older" babies, which includes Noah. They tried doing this a few months ago but it fell apart. Partly because they tried doing too many kids and also for Noah, I think it was too early. Now he's ready. And he's showing it, too! He lays down and takes a good 2 to 2 and a half hour nap with the other kids. I think he enjoys playing with the older kids and eating with them. His teacher says he is a lot less "whiny" over there and actually dislikes going back over to the main nursery side when they close (his teacher is only there from 8am-4:30pm so if I haven't gotten there by 4:30, they move him over to the nursery again). I do wish they did more crafts or projects, but maybe in time, they will.

Nothing TTC related going on, I have an ultrasound on Thursday morning and will update when I get back. Hoping for lots of big eggs!
