J had his 1 year well visit today and he is no longer our chunky monkey. He is in the 50 percentile for weight, height, and head measurements! He basically hasn't grown or shrunk since about 9 months when he was in the 99 percentile. He is done nursing (for about 3 days now) and is on whole milk - which he does not like or take so well. His
Dr. said today to add some sugar free syrup, which the other kids are used to doing to get their milk intake (they love chocolate
and strawberry milk). He is a huge cheese and
yogurt fan so that helps with his dairy too. I am so excited that he never did take a bottle and went straight to a cup...although I do wish he had taken a pacifier, at least we don't have to break him from any of these baby habits now that he is one. He is starting to say a couple words and trying to walk. He's still bum scooting
alot, occasionally crawling, and walking with help or along furniture. We think he will be standing alone any day, and hopefully taking some first steps soon...We also celebrated his birthday this weekend with grandparents. I am excited to watch him grow more this next year.
