1 Year Checkup

Little sweetie had his one year checkup two days ago and it didn't go very well. He was a crying mess as soon as we entered the doctor's office. It was pretty pathetic... He didn't want to lay down on the table and get measured, he didn't want to sit on the scale and get weighed, and he definitely didn't want the nurse to touch him. So you can imagine how shots went. :(

Here are his one year stats. He is growing like a weed!!

Length: 30 7/8" (90th%)
Weight: 25 lbs 13 oz (above the 75th%)
HC: 19 1/8 (95th%)

He's a big boy! :)

The shots have given him a 102 degree fever and has made him extremely whiny. He's not sleeping well during the day and just must overall feel really crummy. It's very hard on a mother when your child obviously feels very badly and there's nothing you can do. Helplessness is an awful feeling. Aside from giving him tylenol every four hours, he doesn't even seem to want to be held. :(

William had some fun playing at the gate on Wednesday before the effects of the shots hit him.

And my Ella, trying out her baby's stroller.

It's been two days of suffering from the after effects of the shots. I'm praying he sleeps well tonight and wakes a new boy!
