1 Year Well Checkup

We went to the doctor today for Ethan's 1 year visit. Ethan is a pretty smart boy, because as soon as I put him on the table to take his clothes off--he started whimpering. And then, when the doctor came into the room, Ethan immediately started crying. It was pretty funny. When the doctor was trying to listen to his heartbeat and lungs and stuff with his stethoscope, Ethan was trying to take it away from him. I couldn't help but laugh. So, Ethan weighs 22 lbs. (he was 6 lbs. 8 oz. at birth) and he is 31 inches tall! (He was 20.5 inches at birth) The doctor said that it's obvious that Ethan has a very "healthy" appetite, and also mentioned that Ethan is very much on the tall side. I told him that his daddy is 6"4' and the doctor said Ethan was a very lucky boy (the doctor is probably only 5"9'). Unfortunately, Ethan had to have 3 shots :-( and cried immediately after the first poke. He was a trooper though--as soon as he was done he was over it.
