Miller Stats

21 month check-up = a breeze. It's the make nice appointment where Miller got to stand on the big-boy scale (aka-he's a monster and getting him to hold still long enough was quite interesting), have his temp taken, lungs and heart listened too, and ears checked. A little feeling around the belly and a tongue depressor to check the toofers and we were done. I wish they were all that easy.

So...other than his height and weight put him at the average for a 33 month old; here it is.

Height: 37 inches
Weight: 32 1/2 pounds

We were basically told he's advanced in size and his motor skills and language are ahead. With all that, others (including us) will expect him to act older but he will have pure meltdowns in public and that's ok. Also, drinking from sippy cups is also ok since glasses are still a challenge and not worth the hassle at a restaurant. Ryan mentioned we only paddle him 3 times a day and the doctor laughed. I love this pediatrician. She reassured us that the laid back attitude is helping and to remember to be firm on dangerous things but if he wants to wear the same shirt every day, it's not worth fighting that battle. How appropriate for the kid with a shoe fetish. Next major milestone (24 months) is dropping him down from whole milk to 2%. Unfortunately, that's not that exciting.

He's a big boy all right!
How goes the house hunt?

Rylee was looking at photos yesterday and she found one of her and Miller when they were just wee babes.

She must miss him because she kept saying his name over and over and when I took the photo away she cried! We'll have to get together when we get back from Alabama!
