Jackson's 1 year check up was this week. Good to get that out of the way. Shots are not fun for anybody.
Here are his stats:
Weight - 26.7 lbs. (90%)
Height - 29.8 in. (60%)
Head - 49.5 cm. (95%)
I've been worried about Jackson's behavior lately. He is grumpy. Like, really, really grumpy. When he's not asleep he's usually whining or crying about something. I was concerned that maybe he had developed a food allergy that was giving him a tummy ache. Or that somehow his ear tubes weren't working and were causing him pain. But when I brought it up with the pediatrician, he said his ears look great and that it's more than likely just an age thing. A phase. He suggested to just ride it out for a few more weeks and see if it improves. Lovely. I love Jackson. So much. But the whining gets a little old around, oh, 9:00 a.m. I think part of the problem is that he is transitioning from two naps a day to just one. Also, all the ear issues kind of wreaked havoc on his sleeping habits.
As far as development, Jackson is plugging right along. He finally learned to crawl the "right" way. No more army crawling. He pulls himself up on every vertical surface he come across and can walk along the furniture. Time to get serious about baby proofing! No walking yet, thank goodness, but I think it's not too far off.
I love this little boy so much. Grumpy pants and all.
