Henry's Nine-Month Check-Up

Henry had his 9-month check-up today with the pediatrician. He weighed 22 lbs, 12 oz (87th percentile), is 29 1/4 in long (87th percentile), and has a head circumference of 46 cm (78th percentile). You can definitely tell that Henry is losing some of his baby chunk and becoming more long and lean. Well not exactly lean but leaner! :-) He received two vaccinations and had his big toe pricked so that his hemoglobin could be checked. As always, he did really well and passed all tests with flying colors! Although, it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep him contained. He wanted to crawl all over the doctor's office (ewwww!) and fought us tooth and nail when the nurse and I were holding him down to get pricked. And I am sure that it is only going to get more difficult the older he gets!
