1 year well check

On Thursday, we took Grant for his 1 year old well check.  It went pretty well other than the fact that he had to get 3 shots and his finger pricked!!  That was not so much fun for any of us!  He weighed 23 lbs and 10 ozs (75th percentile), was 30 1/4 inches tall (75th percentile), and his head was 19 inches (90th percentile).  He is right on track with everything as far as his growth and development, which was great to hear :)

We talked to our pediatrician about switching him off of formula and onto milk.  She suggested just trying whole milk, but with Grant's history of a milk protein allergy, we are a little afraid of doing that just yet.  So yesterday, we started the switch to soy milk.  He did pretty well and is getting used to drinking it out of his sippy cup, but we did still have to give him 2 bottles of soy milk.  It is going to be most difficult to get rid of the morning and bedtime bottle.  We are also in the process of switching him to table food and have completely stopped his acid reflux medicine in the past few weeks so there have been lots of changes!

Other updates:
Grant is walking more and more!  He is walking longer distances and is getting a little more stable on his feet.
He can now blow kissess and will try to give a kiss when asked, which consists of his open mouth touching some part of your face :)
Some other new word that he can say are "bubbles" and "clock"
