Brenden's Appointments

Brenden had a few different appointments this week. He had an appointment with his doctor and he had a WIC appointment yesterday. His doctor's appointment went really well. He hasn't gained any weight since we took him in last month with the double ear infections, but that's okay. We're pretty sure its because he was sick. He still eats a ton so we're really not worried at all. Brenden is weighing 18.6 lbs. which puts him in the 16th percentile. Brenden is now 27.25 inches long which puts him in the 18th percentile. We've got ourselves a growing boy. Also at his doctors appointment he's kind of been having some scratchy skin, apparently its a little baby eczema. Weird. I never would have thought that, we just thought it was a rash. So the doc prescribed some cream to put on Brenden morning, afternoon, and before bedtime. It seems to be working. We'll be putting it on him this week and see how it works out.

Brenden also had a WIC appointment yesterday afternoon. They wanted to check his iron. His iron is exactly where its supposed to be, so they said they wouldn't check it again until he's 18 months old. They printed us out some checks through his year appointment and we were out of there. Easiest appointment ever!!!

I have a growing boy and its making me so sad. Maybe some late baby blues or maybe just a normal mommy not wanting her little baby to grow, AT ALL! He is just getting so big and getting around so well that when I see other babies I just get a little sad because I miss Brenden when he was that age. ANd now when I see these little babies it just makes me realize that Brenden isn't really a baby anymore, he's moving into the toddler stage way too fast! He's already getting into everything, having those toddler looks, and trying to talk, and WALK! What is this little kid doing to me. STOP GROWING!
