Alistair had his one year appointment yesterday, one month late! He is now 20 pounds, 3 ounces (1oth percentile), 29 inches long (15th percentile) and his head is 19 1/2 inches (still 97th percentile). He is a little on the small side, but he is having steady growth and that is what is important. Besides, we are getting WAY more use out of his baby clothes than most people do! He is on to Whole Milk now instead of formula. We are having a slow transition period just to make sure he takes to it instead of just stopping formula cold turkey. So far, so good. He is eating all kinds of foods. He will pretty much eat anything - or at least give it a second chance if he didn't like it the first time -except bananas. He occasionally will eat them, but for the most part he seems to shun them. I think the jarred baby food ones put him off for a bit - they are pretty gross. It's like they put extra starch in them beyond what bananas have naturally! Above is a photo from last night. Among other things on the menu, we had baked beans. Alistair loved them and also thought they made a nice facial and hair conditioner. Bath time soon followed!
Not much else is up with us. We are heading out next week for a long camping trip for the 4th! Should be a good time! Below is a photo of Alistair being helpful. We hung out with Ethan and Jen on Sunday for a bit before the Sandholms joined us for dinner. Alistair is helping Ethan look up some baseball stats. (:
