Look what Joey can do!

Joe walked upstairs for a minute today, and when he came back down, this is what he saw. Needless to say, he hurried down the stairs to get Joey. Before this, Joey would just stand at the bottom stair, content. No longer!!


He's actually quite quick at going up already. Now we will have to work on going down the stairs backwards!


Joey had his 12 month check up at the doctor today. (He is actually 13 months old now, but we couldn't get in the week after he turned 1, and then we were in the Philippines.) So, he got a few shots and some blood taken to check a CBC. Don't worry Gram, he's been taking his Vitamin C every day!! :)

Here's his stats for today: Weight 21 pounds, 8 ounces (25th percentile)
Length 31.5 inches (90th percentile)
Head Circumference 19 inches (90th percentile)

I think he lost a little weight while we were in the Philippines, but the doctor said he is doing just fine. He is still tall and skinny with a big head!

OK, does EVERYONE lose weight in this country except for me????

Poor thing, running around with his cousins, sweating 24/7, and sleeping half as much as normal can really take it out of you.

Yey for Joey! Not so much for you and Joe, now that your parenting demands just tripled... =)
