Friday July 24th was a big day for Trevor. We started the morning out with his Fifteen-Month Checkup. An assessment of his growth (height 30 inches, weight 23 lbs. head circumference) since his last visit. These findings were plotted on his growth chart and Trevor's weight for height were evaluated and compared to previous measurements. The Dr. preformed an informal assessment, based on observation and our interview, of physical and intellectual development, and of hearing and vision. Trevor is walking well (started at 13 months). He can bend over and pick up an object. But, when it comes to using at least 1 word, besides Mama and Dada, that is not happening right now. So we will see the Dr. in six weeks. Matt and I just keep talking with him all day long and reading to him. I know it will come, but as a parent when the Dr. brings something like this to your attention you get nervous.
Trevor can drink from a cup. Points to a desired object. Points to a body part when we ask him to. Uses a spoon (but not exclusively).
Trevor did receive three shots. Hepatitis B, Diphtheria, Tetanus, acellular Pertussis and Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine 7 valent. Wow!
In the afternoon he attended his Gymboree class. So all in all he had a long day. After dinner it was bath and bed. He was exhausted, and so was I.
