12 month appt!

Riley had his one year doctor's appointment, and it was a rough afternoon. Riley's class is preparing him to move to the pre-toddler room by adjusting his routine. No more morning nap! He is adjusting well, however on Monday his doctor's appointment was at 1pm (nap time) which wasn't a good idea. He did OK in the waiting room for 45 minutes.... (OUCH) and then his pedi decided to start him with the finger prick (double ouch) for Hgb and lead screen. So we finally get him calmed down from that and they are ready to bring him to a room. Next comes height and weight and temperature (which was an ordeal) and then he was happy again even while we talked to the pedi...until he had the nerve to try and listen to Riley. (Since he had RSV and was traumatized at the ED...he hates the stethoscope) Then to top it off...three shots. Riley was inconsolable, and then predictably passed out on the walk to the car and took a nap for 3+ hours before we woke him up.

The important stuff....Height 30" Weight 23 lbs 5 oz - he is totally healthy and developing right on schedule!!

Next week is a busy day for us...we close on the sale of our house and Riley moves to the pre-toddler room!!!
