The Baby is Well...

Maxwell is doing really well, that according to our pediatrician during our Well Baby visit today. He can do all of the following:
  • Work to get toys that are out of reach
  • Look for dropped objects (he loves to drop them and then try to find them)
  • Pull up to standing position from sitting
  • Crawl
  • Get into sitting position from stomach
  • Get onto stomach from sitting position
  • Stand holding onto someone or something
  • Pick up small objects between his pointer finger and thumb (pincher grasp)
  • Say "mama" and "dada"
  • Cruise
  • Understands "no," but does it anyways ;)
  • Wave
  • Clap
  • Put objects into a box, and take them out
  • Feed himself
At his visit, he was weighed and measured. He weighs 22 lbs, 14 oz (90th percentile) and is 29 inches long (75th percentile). His growth seems to be slowing down, but we know a huge growth spurt is on the horizon. (The boy has been eating and eating lately). He got one shot, the H1N1 booster. He is officially done with all infant shots and will be moving onto toddler shots at his next visit (when he officially turns into a toddler). I am so glad that my boy is so healthy and is thriving. I am a proud mama!!
