Robbie's 9 month check up

Yesterday we took Robbie in for his 9 month check up. He weighs 22 lbs, is 28 3/4 inches long and his head is 46 cm. He is in the 75th percentile for all of the measurements, so he's not as big as some people think he is. Luckily he only had to get 1 shot, the last Hep B shot, and didn't even cry. The doctor was great about answering all of our questions, mainly about giving him new solid foods. We were told that we can give him any vegetable, meats except seafood, and fruits that aren't citrus.

I scheduled the appointment right at the beginning of nap time, but luckily Robbie was great the whole time. His nap when we got home wasn't as long as it normally is, but that's fine because I was worried about him not sleeping last night. The doctor suggested we come back in August or September to get his flu shot and then hopefully we won't be back until his 1 year appointment.

YAY! But, centimeters means nothing to me.
