I missed his actual 15 month appointment last month (I'm blaming it on pregnancy brain), so we had it today instead and Wesley is officially 15-months 3 weeks & 2 days.
It was the toughest visit yet, he flipped out just getting his temperature checked and had tears streaming down his face for his head circumference. Let's not even talk about the vaccination. Both the nurse and doctor said the 15 & 18 month visits are akin to wrestling matches. I just remember how sweet and docile he was at 9 months ...

Doctor, keep your hands off me

Some doctor advice ... ignore tantrums, set limits (by re-directing), give him fruit and juice if he's constipated, not eating doesn't mean picky - he's just not hungry. And we got the okay to turn the car seat forward facing (even though the APA says to wait until 2-years old) because we have one very tall guy who's legs are up on the seat.
Today he weighed 26lbs4oz (69%) and measured 33-1/2" (95%). Long and Lean. No wonder why he's only wearing 18-24months/ 2T clothing.

cute picture of Wesley!! They do go through stages where they are NOT thrilled with seeing the doc...Emma would freak anytime she saw a man wearing a tie because her peditrician always wore one!! Thankfully, she got over it and we haven't had any problems(fortunately, she's 16!!) Come to Texas before baby #2!!
lol! I saw the little tantrum when you pushed the box of pastries out of his reach!! Of course, I think it's cute.
