Carter's Well Visit

Even though Carter is 16 months old, he just had his 15 month well visit yesterday.  Carter has been battling viruses and ear infections for the past month, so his well visit kept being delayed.  Carter is finally on the mend and feeling lots better.

Carter weighed 23 pounds 7 oz, which places him in the 45th percentile for weight.  Carter measured 31 and a half inches, which places him in the 60th percentile for height.  Carter did not receive any vaccines yesterday, so it was a good visit.  Carter is growing and developing like crazy!  He wants to be independent and copy everything his big brother does.

Carter and Nolan have a blast pushing each other on the scooter!!  There have only been a few dents put into the refrigerator, but after a long talk with the boys and an absent scooter for the night, no more "accidents" have occurred with the refrigerator and the scooter.

I'm shocked to hear Carter is only in the 45th percentile for weight.  All he does is EAT!! Carter eats as much as I do during meals, and in between meals he is always snacking on something.  Here's a night were Carter enjoyed some mashed potatoes!

I know Carter is pouting in the picture, but I cannot believe how grown up he looks!  Carter is definitely a toddler.  Carter is starting to say more words and loves to read.  Carter has really taken an interest in writing on paper, building with blocks, and DANCING!!

Carter has really taken an interest in Thomas and Friends as well.  Anytime he hears a train whistle, Carter becomes excited and starts dancing.  There is a part on the opening of Thomas were a little boy waves to the trains passing under a bridge.  Carter knows when the part is coming up and waves too!
