1 yr visit

I took Cam to his 1 yr check up. It went perfectly well and Cam did fantastic. I was a little worried, since his appointment was during his morning nap. He was happy and playful and showed the Dr some of his personality. He weighs 23 pounds, which I was surprised by because that's only a pound more than at his 8 month check up. He is starting to thin out and I won't lie...I am bummed! I like chubby babies. I don't want his thunder thighs to go away, I don't want to see his ribs, and most importantly, I want his cute little belly to pooch out when he sits! (Weird these are all things I wish on him, and pray will go away for me!)

I am happy to report he is taller too. I can't believe it. He is 31 inches! He was pretty tall when he was born, but has seriously sprouted since then. I was scared there for a minute he would be a giant. Now, we are just hoping he has interest in sports and will be a NBA star!

He vrooom vroomed for the Dr while playing cars and babbled a ton. The Dr said he should be able to say at least 2 words by now. He also said all food is game, but at about 18 months is when pickiness starts showing. MAN, I thought I was in the clear! Cam has never turned his nose up to any food offered to him...besides canned Mac and Cheese. Can you blame him though?

We can also start giving him whole milk! Yay, no more expensive formula. Lame story about the milk by the way. I was at Walmart (Sorry Jenny) searching high and low for the "whole milk" label. Actually walked up and down the isle 3 times!
I finally called Scott and said, "Umm is Vitamin D milk whole milk? It's right by the 2%."
I did not get the response I was hoping for...
"I don't know!"
Thanks to the kind lady buying eggs with her 5 kids who informed me YES Vitamin D milk is whole milk! OH MY GOSH!! I am as dumb as they come. I would like to also note, I have NEVER bought anything other than skim milk my whole adult life. Good excuse??

I can't wait for Sunday, my boy will be 1! I am sure I will be crying my eyes out as he shovels the cake in his face. Sugar high...here we come!
