15 month check-up

Jack turned 15 months on Friday and was lucky enough to have a Dr. appt on that very special day. I don't know if I have told you before how much Jack does not like the nurse or his dr. They are both very nice people, but now that he can recognize faces he knows that they are not always nice to him.
So the dr appt. went well. A little crying when the nurse looked at him and got out the measuring tape to measure his head. I'm not even kidding, she pulled out the tape and looked at him and he started to cry. And it wasn't a little pretend whimper, it was a full on cry, red face and all. A couple of shots later and we were done. I don't know if you can tell by the pictures, but Jack is not very big for his age. It's not like Jack and I are tiny people. Everybody tries to be nice about it and says, "he'll catch up later, just wait till he has a huge growth spurt." He is in the 10% for weight at 20 lb. 2 1/2 oz. and in the 30th% for his height at 30 3/4 in. The only benefit to this is he isn't outgrowing his clothes as quickly and d=staying in the same diaper size. He's healthy and looks good and that's all that matters.
His back molar came through. This morning we were having breakfast and I thought I would check. I stuck my finger in his mouth and sure enough there were little poky teeth in the back. I moved my finger a little to the front and Jack chomped down on my finger. He left some teeth marks in my finger. I guess thats what I get.
We are planning to go to LegoLand on Tuesday. It will be Jack's first time. I am so excited to take him. We are going with this cousins that he loves so much. I wonder how much longer they are going to let him follow them around. I'll post pictures of us at Lego land later this week.

Bye!
