One Year Well Visit


We went for Kellen's one year well visit last Wednesday. He is 24 lbs 7 oz and 30 1/4 in. This keeps him in the 75 percentile for his weight and height. Doctor says its time to take him off of the formula and start whole milk. So its been three days and we have him drinking one bottle a day of whole milk, which he seems to like. I also cut out one of his feedings. He was drinking four bottles a day, now he's just getting three. Its been a hard transition for him. He doesn't eat a lot of solid foods and doesn't drink much out of his cup so he's been very hungry in between meals. The doctor says he has to learn to eat more solids to make up the difference. He is walking all over the place now. Its funny to see how he's transitioned right into walking. In the first few days he was still crawling a lot and walking only when we stood him up, now he walks all the time and rarely crawls. He's also mimicking a lot of things we do, like pointing, clapping, and talking on the phone. Now we really have to watch what we say and do!
