"Just sitting in my diaper waiting for the doctor, drinking water, and learning about kitties.
No big deal."
Jack had his 15 month checkup last week, which actually was a 14.5 month checkup because apparently there were some vaccinations he needed before he reached 15 months. So, the poor dude got three shots.
Important stats: Jack now weighs in at 27lbs 4 oz and is 33.5" tall. He's come down a bit on weight percentile and is now closer to the 80th mark, but is even further off the chart this time for height. It's not like Derrick or I are super tall, so I assume this will even out sometime. But for now, most strangers seem to assume Jack is around two years old.
In other fun news, I've had to sign two injury reports at daycare over the past week and a half. The first one was because another kid scratched Jack because Jack took his toy. The second one was self-inflicted when apparently he fell and hit his chin on the table and busted open his top lip (see evidence above, at least of the bumped chin). And of course this happened two days before his first picture day at "school!"
Also, Jack is now walking unassisted in short bursts here and there. It's been busy times around here.

Poor Jack! His first battle wounds. I hope
ReplyDeletehis lip heals quick.

It did heal pretty quickly. Only took a few days.
Deletebut your parents are not that short and my father and grampy Eldridge were over 6'
ReplyDeleteDad
True. I wasn't thinking of that.
DeleteNot that it's a competition, but yeah, he's bigger than Elijah, who is barely first percentile for height...

Wow, it would be interesting to see them together!
DeletePoor Jack with his busted chin, two of many battle scars to come. I'm sure he'll lose a little more weight, when he starts running, which won't be too long.
