12 Month Appointment

Jasper had his 12 month appointment this afternoon. He got 3 shots and his flu booster. Turns out he has an ear infection in his right ear. So we will be starting him on antibiotics this evening. She said he was a little behind in his gross motor skillqs but she feels that it is likely due to the fact that he is such a large kid. More to move, so it takes a little longer to do the gross motor stuff than it would for a kid that is smaller. His measurements were:
     
weight: 26 pounds, 15.1 ounces (93.2% for age)
height: 32.5 inches (98.6% for age, up from 90% at 9 months old)
head circumfrance: 19.09 inches (94.8% for age, up from 70% at 9 months old)

She said that he is big (weight wise) for his age, but she is not concerned about it because he is so tall. His weight and height is that of the average 18 month old. Guess that makes sense as to why he is in 18-24 month clothes.

Jasper is crawling to beat the band here lately. He seems to like the Christmas tree. Sometimes he acts like it's not even there and other times he just stares at it. We are going to try to do his birthday party with friends on Sunday. Gonna make cupcakes for everyone versus making another cake. Will wait until after that party to download and put on the blog all the new pictures.

Love you all very much!
