Maxwell had a pediatrician appointment Monday morning and everything looks great! He’s up to 11 lbs, 15 oz (he was 10 lbs one month ago) and is between the 50th and 75th % in weight. I really thought he was going to weigh a bit more because he seems so chunky to me! He grew an inch and a quarter and is now 23.5 inches long which is in the 75th to 95th % for height! Maybe we’ll have a tall guy after all! His head grew .5 cm to 15.5 cm total circumference. He had to get several shots which was NO fun but he actually handled them very well. A little crying but it was over quickly.
Post shots and doing fine…
Sad right leg…
and sad left leg.
The doctor is very pleased with his progress. He’s cooing, smiling and interacting right on schedule! We did decide to put Maxwell on Zantac last week for reflux. He seems to be doing much better now so, even though I was hesitant to put him on medicine, I’m very glad we decided to do it. Our little guy is moving along!
I’ve got a few more fun Halloween pictures to share as well.
Our neighborhood does a great Halloween parade every year. Unfortunately, Robert had to go out of town on Halloween but Maxwell and I hit up the parade anyway. While he didn’t wear his monkey suit, he was still appropriately attired in his I ♥ My Mummy tee! He was also being toted in in his new black and white sling and I thought we looked pretty festive with my orange shirt!
There are always tons of cute kids in costume at the parade and I had fun just taking pictures of the whole event.
The little basketball player was beyond cute and the goldfish cracked me up. His older brother was the fisherman!
Some more scenes from the parade – floats, costumes and quite a crowd!
Fun, fun!
