18 Month Stats

Miller's 18 month check up was yesterday. Here are the stats:

Height: 35 3/4 inches
Weight: 30 lbs 9 oz

What this equates to is one tall boy who is off the charts (still) and estimated to be 6'4". Not surprising but fun to have a doctor tell you that.

He has 16 of his 20 teeth and those may or may not come until he's 2 (hence being called 2 year molars).

He's advanced with his speaking skills (especially for a boy). Some boys don't speak until 2! Could you imagine how quiet our house would have been these past 18 months if that were true in our case?

He's on track with his motor skills too.

So, other than unnecessary screaming and carrying on when he was measured, weighed, toe pricked (his iron was tested-good results), and his 3 shots...it was a great check-up. We go back at 21 months for a regular visit. He's all done with shots until kindegarten! As the doctor said "The next checkup is to make nice." LOL!

Oh, and one other thing. The Miller Monster has been biting at school. We have a meeting with the administrator on Tuesday. The Dr. was like "there's not much you can do at this age," so it will be interesting to hear what they want us to do to change his behavior. Another kid has Roseola so we are crossing our fingers he doesn't catch it or come down with it next week when we fly. Always something for me to worry about.
