9 month check-up/ July 16, 2010

Nathan was 9 months on July 3rd. We went in for his routine 9 month check-up a couple weeks later. Just wanted to record his stats: 23 lbs. 4.5 oz; 30 inches long; head circumference 47.5 cm. He's definitely growing well! His only health issue has been his multiple ear infections. We were finally sent to see an ENT doctor who recommended putting tubes in his ears. So, that is exactly what we did. He had them placed on August 13th. Nathan did great. I actually think it might have been harder on me. Thankfully, my mom went with us. She was very helpful in keeping Nathan occupied before the surgery while he couldn't eat. He was one hungry boy. Since the surgery, he has done really well. He has even slept through the night a few times! First time ever! It is wonderful when he gets a good night's sleep.
