It's going to be a rough day!

UPDATED:

The time has come to have Kason's eye fixed. It still hasn't cleared up and the Pediatrician said we wouldn't want to wait longer than a year. So, today we had our appointment with the Eye Doctor. She said it is definitely a clogged tear duct and if it hasn't cleared up by now the chances are slim that it will clear up on its own. So, his surgery is scheduled for Tuesday, August 18th. It sounded on the phone when I made this appointment that they would be doing it today, but she said they do it at Children's because he obviously will need anesthesia for it. Poor little guy. Anyway - prayers will be needed for him that day. I've heard it's not a bad procedure, but it still can't be fun!

Little bub also went for his 1 year appointment today and got 4 shots and a toe prick to check for anemia (he didn't even make a peep when she did the toe prick - he was just watching her the whole time!). At 13months he weighs 23lbs 15oz which was the 60th percentile (which means he weighs more than 60% of the babies his age) and was 32 in long which was the 90th percentile (taller than 90% of the babies his age) He's a big boy!

He's doing lots of new things - he loves to carry and push big things around... such as pillows and our big block foot rests. He points at everything. Shakes his head yes and no, and has been calling me mama all day! He loves to flip and climb - and is very good at the fine motor things like putting little things in the right place. I asked our Dr today about the talking and he said he is not concerned at all that he's not talking yet. He said Kaid was a jabber jaws at this age already because she's a girl - he said he wouldn't be concerned unless he's not doing 3 word phrases by 2 1/2. Everything other than his eye issue looked great!
