After a long weekend in New York, we came back to go to the kids' doctor appts. Timmy needed his six month well baby appt and Connor needed to catch up on a couple of shots that were not available in Alaska. The appts went better than I could have imagined! Connor was very cooperative, balking only at getting weighed, and earned a rare treat for his lovely cooperation; lollipops are big motivators in his world!
He is just over 39 1/2 inches tall and weighs 37 lbs...nice lean tall boy. He got his shot with no fuss and earned his lollipop and congratulatory hug from mommy for such nice behavior. The pediatrician was very supportive of his speech therapy and preschool plans, and was impressed with his motor skills in riding his big boy bike so well.
Timmy's stats were 18 lbs 9 oz and 28.5 inches tall. He's in the 95th percentile for height, but only 65th for weight; he's showing a gradual but not yet alarming trend downward in weight percentiles, so we'll mention it at his pediatric gastroenterology appointment in April. He's right on target for all his milestones and is on the cusp of crawling -- he manages to get around pretty well wiggling and rolling around.
I'll post pictures from the New York trip as soon as I can. We sure had a lot of fun, but the kids were very tired and worn out after such a whirlwind trip of cooing relatives!
