We took Mathias in for his one-year appointment last week, and he almost broke the scale! He weighed in at 26 pounds, 3 ounces and stretched out to 31.75 inches. Both are 95th percentile for his age, which explains why the other parents at the park always think he’s older than he is.
He’s still a happy little guy, for the most part, although recent bouts with teething have led to some sour nights. (He has two little snaggleteeth sticking out at top, with some emerging at the bottom.) He’s still a great walker and can even jog through our apartment if he’s looking to catch up with something (generally his mama). He’s also showing off some toddler temperament; sometimes he enjoys doing things he’s not supposed to just to get a reaction from us. (Batting the lily plant in the living room is a prime example.)
Things are good for the most part, though. Here are a couple videos showing what it’s like hanging out at home with him.
Here’s him giving us a little chatter before clamming up.
And here he is playing his favorite game, peek a boo. (He’s usually more dedicated to hiding, but the camera always distracts him.)
These videos were great. Can’t wait to see M-Dogg for real next month. 🙂 Miss you guys!!
Thanks Katie! We’re looking forward to Dow days ourselves!
