12 Month Check Up

Alexander is now 24 lbs and 8oz and 32 inches long, and is doing great! I love the new squat position he has learned how cute is that! We even had time to read a couple of books while we were waiting for the nurses to come in and give him shots. This is the stillest he has ever been for us to read to him!

After the doctors appointment we went to pick up my bike. We had Alexander's new bike seat installed that he got from Mia and Papi for his birthday. He does not really like the helmet but once I got going he forgot all about it.

Then home for some much needed play time on the back porch. Alexander loves his tricycle from Grandma and Grandpa. He loves to push it and tonight he discovered he can chase the dogs with it. He would just laugh when they would run from him. Libby even helped him up when he fell. I think the dogs are really starting to get used to him being mobile.

It was great to tell the Doctor all the things Alexander is doing:
He is waving Hello and Goodbye
Says: Ma ma, Da da, Dixie, Libby Maggie, Hey, Uh oh, and Hi
Pointing at stuff he wants
Gives you what he has when you say "Thank you"
