9 Months and Counting...

Today was Ethan's 9 month checkup .... even though he's basically a week away from being 10 months. Ethan was such a good boy at the doctor's office today. He laughed and smiled at all the nurses and his doctor. He didn't even get upset when we had to strip him down to his diaper, which he usually doesn't like too much. He got all his measurements ... he weighs 21 lbs 6 oz, he's 28 1/2 inches long and his head measures 18 1/4 inches. He's between the 50-75% in weight and length and the 75% in head circumference ... which shouldn't surprise anyone who knows the size of Elliott's head ;o) On a side note, that was one of my biggest worries after I found out I was pregnant .... knowing that I would have to deliver a baby with a big head if they took after their daddy at all .... and this still applies to any other children we may have in the future. So anyways, all-in-all, the visit went well and Ethan is doing great, just getting over a cold but no ear infections .... Yea! Our next routine visit is in 2 months when Ethan's 1 year old ..... WOW.... crazy to even be saying that, how time flies!
