one-year appointment

Jonah had his one-year appointment. We decided to split the amount of shots he was due to receive since most of them don't have to happen until he is 18 months old. He now measures 30 inches, which puts him in the 55 percentile for his age. He weighs 20 lbs 8 oz, which puts him in the 20%. He has a normal level of iron, which especially pleased me. So, he is getting good nutrition.

We were told Jonah is now ready for a car seat that faces forward. That will be a new experience for us all.

Our regular doctor was out on maternity leave and we learned that she also named her new son Jonah. Tim said, "I wonder where she got the idea." We are only hoping that this is not a sign of a trend to come - an overabundance of Jonahs. Hey, if it does happen, at least we know we were first :)
