1 and 4 year well checks

On Tuesday, Colton and Grant had their 1 and 4 year well checks. We scheduled them together and that worked pretty well. We absolutely love their pediatrician, Dr. Owensby. She is always so willing to answer all of my questions and really makes us feel at ease. They did both have to get 2 shots each, but other than that, the appointment went great. Grant doesn't have to get any more shots until he is 11 years old (which seems so old!!) so that is really nice.

 Colton weighed 22 lbs. 1 oz. and was 30 in. tall (both in the 50th percentile). Grant weighed 44 lbs 2 oz. (exactly double of Colton!) and was 43 in. tall. He was in the 95th percentile for both and his BMI was right where it should be for comparing his height and weight. She told Grant that if he kept on this track, he would be taller than his Daddy one day and he really liked that. Now, he tells everyone that he is going to be taller than his Daddy:)

Everything checked out great physically and developmentally and I couldn't be more thankful for my 2 healthy and happy boys!!

I feel like Colton has really started growing up even more in the last month. He is completely done with bottles. He is turning into a good eater like his brother and loves fruits and vegetables (and snacks), just like Grant. He loves for Grant to chase him around and he walks so fast now, that he can almost run:) He is getting more teeth. He is talking so much more and says things like:
Wawa- water
mo- more
no
mama
dada
rock rock- when he is rocking on the rocking horse at school
mine
ball
uh oh- when he drops something

These are a few pictures from Hannah and Sophie's birthday party last weekend. They had a slip 'n slide set up and it was hilarious to see Colton play on it! He doesn't hesitate about a lot and you can definitely tell he has an older brother. I think he thinks he is much older than he really is:)
