12 month check-up

wow! Is that for ME?!

Trent got to enjoy a cupcake on his actual birthday.

We sang to him too!

Today was Trent's 12 month check-up. We're so thankful that we have a healthy, growing baby boy. Everything went well at his appointment. It's just funny that Trent is our only child who doesn't like going to the doctor. Rachel and Bradley have always loved going...loved interacting and chatting with the nurses and doctor. Not Trenty! He was fine in the waiting room...walking around and exploring. But, when we got to the room, our favorite nurse, Ginny, tried chatting with him and Trent wanted NO part of it. He started crying and shaking and practically hyperventilating! It's so funny to see this side of him when he's our calmest, most laid-back child! Anyway, he had to get 2 shots in his little arms, which he hated and I'm sure hurt. Poor baby! When he got in the car, it only took a few minutes for him to fall asleep. Sweet little thing!

Here are Trent and Brad's stats... (I can't find Rachel's! :( )

Trent- 23 lbs. ~ 29 1/4 in. long

Bradley- 23 lbs. 8 oz. ~ 29 1/4 in. long

Wow...the boys are neck and neck!

By the way, one of the perks of being 1 is that Trent got to have his seat turned around and is now finally forward-facing! It was so cute when I strapped him in the first time...he kept looking around like he didn't know where he was. Then he realized that he could see me and I think he figured that if he could see me then maybe I should be holding him. He fussed a little, and I think he misses getting to watch Rachel, but otherwise he likes facing front. He looks mighty cute sitting there like a big boy!
