The Doctor is in...

Well, Austin did really good for his doctor's appointment! He only had to get one shot today but...he had to get his blood drawn! He did really really good for them! He didn't even know that the nurse was poking his finger and pinching it to get his blood out and he only flinched and cried for a second when she put the needle in his leg for the shot! They drew his blood to see if he was anemic...he wasn't, everything was normal!

He hasn't gained any weight...he actually lost 5 ounces, but the doctor said that it's due to his mobility! He is now 28 inches long...growing an inch since last time! He is also getting all four top teeth right now! The doctor thinks that they all should be in within the next couple of weeks...explaining the reason for his runny nose this week! I thought he had a runny nose because I left his fan on all night but the doctor seems to think it's because of those teeth! You can see the teeth coming in but they haven't broken the skin yet! He has been so good about it lately I hadn't even noticed them!

So he did really good for his appointment, the next appointment will be for his ONE YEAR check-up! It's so hard to believe that he will be a year old in three short months! I can't wait though! Oh, the doctor thinks that he should start walking pretty soon. Not really quick, but since he's standing up all the time it shouldn't be long now! Maybe he will be walking by the time we come home in December...

Have a good week!
