1yr Checkup

Today we had Nicks 1yr checkup!!  It went very well.  Doc said I have a baby genius on my hands since he is doing MORE than most 1yr olds at his age are!!!!  I'm not surprised though =)

Waiting for doc to come in
At 12 months, Nick is in the 18th percentile for height (he has always been around that....my shorty!) BUT...he is now in the ONE percentile for weight!!!  That shocks me because he eats like a pig!!!  He has always been near or around the 4th percentile for weight...he's just a little guy...but I could not believe he had dropped 3 percent!!  However, Doc nor I are worried.  If he wasn't eating than we would be.  He just has a super fast metabolism and has no fat!  He is soo strong and completely healthy!  (I wish I had his metabolism!!)  So we will try some pediasure to see if we can fatten him up....if not, then he will remain my little PEANUT for as long as he wants =)  I'm sure it doesn't help that he is the most ACTIVE boy too!!  Nick does not like to sit still.....EVER lol
He is now completely on milk and eating mostly what we eat...which is nice!!  I know some moms have a hard time getting their kids to transition from baby food to our food.  Nick has seriously been the easiest going kid....I am the luckiest Mama!!


On a side note...
Today was not only my HALF BIRTHDAY (I've celebrated for 26 years!!) ..but also a year to the day of when we brought our little peanut home!!!!  So Nick and I had a busy but fun-filled day! =)

Pedisure is amazing! We have had the same thing with both my older kids! Ava was so tiny at a year bit the Pedisure helped her gain some. Try getting him to love avacodas also, those have the good fat he needs. They were Ava's first foods and she still loves them! At Owens last appt he hadn't gained any weight for a year so the doc had he start the Pedisure sidekicks for older kids and he has gained 3 lbs since October. Our lucky kids and their fast metabolisms!! He is so adorable and looks like you are loving being a mommy!
