7 Month Growth Check

Today I had to take Basher back to the doctor.  No biggie, just had to get some shots and do a growth check.  When we were in at 6 months, he was unable to get a vaccine that has a combo of 3 different diseases (polio and DTaP and Hep B, I think) because there was a shortage.  Instead, he had to get each vaccine individually.  That was too many to give him at one time (DTaP, Hep B, and the flu were given at 6 months, but he still needed polio and prevnar), plus he needed his flu booster, so we went back in today.  

In addition, the doctor wanted to do a growth check because she was a little concerned about the rate in which his head grew between 4 months and 6 months.  Sound familiar?  Yeah, been there, done that.  

Today was a good day at Denver West Pediatrics.  Shots were successful (only a few tears by both of us!). 

His head growth seems to have slowed down (not that I was really worried...)

And they also weighed and measured him.
19 lb 9 oz
28 1/2 in

EXACTLY the same size his brother was...at 9 months.  Dude.

So there you have it.  A boring post about nothing.  But at least you got to see more cute pics of #2.

You're welcome!
