9 Month Well Check

Colby had a blast at the doctor's office this morning. He loved all of the attention he got from the people there! He didn't even cry when they poked his toe, he just smiled at the girls. What a doll. He weighed 20 pounds and 9 ounces and was 28 inches long. He's in the 50th percentile for height and weight, if you can believe it! He enjoyed the tongue depressors that the doctor gave him so much he carried them with him all the way to the car and fell asleep with them in his hands. Overall it was a successful trip. I was worried they would be concerned he wasn't crawling but she said he is advanced in his communication skills and that when kids are advanced in one area another (gross motor) tends to be placed on the back burner. She also said he seems to be a really laid back and easy going baby who is content to watch the world from a distance. I'm not worried anymore, I'm just enjoying these last few days of immobility!
