Mason's One Year Well Check

Last Thursday Mason had his 1 year well-check and we were very anxious to see where he was on the charts. He took his shots like a champ, only crying for literally 5 seconds.

He weighed in a whooping 17.8lbs. When Dr. Koil pulled up the chart, Mason was less than the 3rd percentile. I thought that sounded familiar, so we pulled up Miles's stats at the same age, and sure enough, they are almost identical for height and weight. Miles was 17.6lbs. It was at 12 months with Max that he literally fell off the charts and Dr. Koil ran him through a battery of tests, even testing for cystic fibrosis to make sure that he was healthy. Max at 12 months weighed only 15.2lbs!! We knew he was tiny but it wasn't until I lookat Mason now to realize how small Max was. Looking back at pictures from Max's 2nd birthday, Mason is now wearing the clothes at 1 year that Max wore at his two year birthday. Its amazing how different one child to the next is. We are so thankful that Max turned out to be healthy, is growing, and now is very normal sized for an almost 3 year old.

I know it is kind of hard to see but here is Mason's chart for weight.

Doctor's visits are always fun for us (minus the shot part). I love seeing how the boys have grown, and it helps that we love our pediatrician. We spent 25 minutes talking to him about life and our families before we realized that maybe we should talk about Mason. :) Sorry to all those patients waiting after us!

Here are the brothers waiting patiently while Mason got checked over. These are some awesome little men!!!

This picture was a few days after his checkup, but I couldn't resist posting it. This kiddo loves to eat and he practically inhaled his white cheddar shells and cheese macaroni from Panera Bread. But then again, it is about the most delicious thing, I wanted to inhale it too!!!
