1 Year Check-Up

I took Nate to the doctor on Thursday for his one-year check up. Everything is good and right on track. He looks happy and healthy. He weighs 25lbs 2oz (80th%) and is 31 3/4 in. long (90th%). So he's still tall but starting to lean out. He still feels like he weighs a ton though!

He's walking like crazy and getting into everything! He has been able to get into the cupboards in the kitchen for awhile now, but has never been able to get into the drawers (no handles). He has finally figured it out and now nothing is safe! And it seems as though if something is off limits he wants it that much more.

But he's definitely a happy baby. As I write this he's walking around the room, laughing...at nothing. He's my special child.

He's still not waving bye-bye but the doctor seems to think he can and is just stubborn, since he copies other things. And he finally started clapping. We never thought that was going to happen. He's adding more words to his vocabulary, now he says 'good'.

And just starting yesterday, he is refusing to eat anything but mashed potatoes. He refuses his toddler raviolis. I even made him mashed sweet potatoes and he wouldn't eat them! I keep trying different foods, old ones that he's always loved and new ones, but he refuses to eat them. But just like the graham cracker diet, I'm sure it will end in a few days and he'll be eating normal again. Until then, he just won't be sleeping that well. Great.
