Martin's 9 mon. appt.


I took Martin to his 9 month appointment yesterday. He is 19.11 lbs. and 29 1/2 inches long. He is one tall boy. His pediatrician said that he was a small 15 mon. old based on his weight and height. She also scolded me on his cold that he currently has. He hasn't had it for long, but he is coughing and wheezing a bit. She checked his oxygen saturation levels and decided to send us home with an inhaler to help out his breathing. I thought it was just the cold and that he'd get over it like all the other times he's had a cold. I felt a bit like a bad mom for not mentioning it to her, but I'm telling you that he is happy and hardly acts ill at all. It's not slowing him down one bit. Oh...and he finally got his 1st tooth about a week ago...yeah.

Elizabeth is also doing great. She is talking more than ever and has a lot to say. She loves to sing in the car and requests her favorite songs. I often find her and Martin playing behind a closed door. She is patient with him...as much as a 2 year old can have patience. He adores her and she lets him.
