9 month appointment

Mommy & James
Happy boy
We went to Dr. Smith, our pediatrician, for James' 9 month appointment this morning. She said JP is doing great and a beautiful, healthy, baby boy! Developmentally he is right on track. He had to get his flu shot and Hep B vaccine and the nurse had to prick his big toe to draw blood to test for iron in his diet and to check for lead. James did great and only cried for a minute. Here are his official stats:

Length: 29 3/4 inches (90th percentile)

Weight: 21 lbs 1 ounce (55th percentile)

Head: 18 1/2 inches (90th percentile)

Our next appointment is on May 5th when James will be ONE years old! I can't believe how fast this first year has flown by!
