9 month dr visit

Yesterday was our 9 month doctor visit. The doctor and nurse seemed very satisfied with the boys' progress so far. It was pretty amusing - as the nurse was checking off the milestone list, the boys were doing each of the things, like clapping, waving, pinching objects, and making consonant sounds. As we described their abilities, she noted the exact same thing we have - while Riley excels with gross motor skills, Logan excels with fine motor skills. Everything looked good, so the appointment was pretty uneventful, but 2 hours long. The boys got a vaccine but were so well behaved - Riley cried for like 10 seconds and Logan 15 seconds - not much longer than it took to get the vaccine in, put the band-aid on, and pick them up.

The best part of the  appointment was that we were given the go ahead to try more and more table foods - eggs, pancakes, waffles, meatballs, sweet potatoes or mashed potatoes (with butter), tilapia, etc. Riley was also given the green like to stop taking Zantac.


Here are the 9 month stats:

Logan:
Weight: 17lbs 1.4 oz (15th percentile)
Height: 27 1/2 in (25th percentile)
Head: 17 1/4 (5th percentile)

Riley:
Weight: 15lbs 15 oz (5th percentile)
Height: 26 3/4 in (2nd percentile)
Head circumference: 17 3/4 (25th percentile)

Our boys are moving up in the world!
