Isaac's 1yr Check Up!

Isaac had his one year check up this morning (I know, a few months over due). He took it like a champ... and a girl! He got four shots and they had to draw blood so when he cried, he SCREAMED!!! I wanted to cry right along with him! I'm glad he doesn't go through the torture of anticipating the shots but boy do they sting. He couldn't wait to get out of there, waving bye to the doctors and telling us he was all done. He's 26 lbs (70 percentile) and 32 1/4 in (85 percentile). He's happy, healthy, and developing on track! We're still working on his vocabulary (he says mama, dada, ball, tickle) but he mostly communicate through sign language (he signs water, milk, gentle, all gone, please, hat, thank you, food, and more). Isaac knows most of his animal sounds (dog, cat, shark, bear, lion, snake, fish, lizard, duck, horse, sheep, owl, monkey, tiger, seal, dolphin) and has mommy and daddy working on their elephant sound! He loves playing ball, the drums, showing us his muscles, reading books, hide and seek, dancing and spinning in circles, being outside, and chasing the cats all over the house! He doesn't like getting his hands dirty, naps, broccoli (that's my boy!), being inside, and car rides longer than 30 minutes. We love him more and more each day! This little guy is the greatest blessing!

Maybe it's just my computer screen but it's REALLY hard to read the text against the brown background. :(

And your little man just gets cuter and cuter with each pic you post!!!
