We met Brady's new doctor for this appointment and it went really well. He is doing awesome developmentally and seems to be growing like a weed. He is 31 inches tall (60%), weighs 23 lbs, 8 oz (30%) and his head circumfrence is 46.5 inches (30%).
Brady eats constantly all day long, but he is so active, that he's only gained .25 lbs since his 1 year birthday. The doc isn't worried and neither am I. I just wonder how come I couldn't have only gained .25 lbs since Brady's 1 year birthday? I mean I feel like I am just as active as he is chasing him around all the time, but I guess not :)
Brady is doing so many new things these days, it's hard to name them all. One of the best things, is he is really learning how to communicate, even though he's not quite talking yet. Using baby signs, he tells us when he's hungry, wants more, is all done, is sleepy and when he has a dirty diaper. He will shake his head no if we ask him a question and the answer is no. He doesn't know to shake his head yes yet, so we just know that if we ask him a question and he doesn't say no, then the answer is yes. He knows where his nose, tounge and ears are. He knows what a dog says and he loves to sweep and mop the floors (he's mommy's big helper). He does say a few words, like hi and thank you.
On a different note, MaLyn, Brady and I went to the train station last week and took a tour of the trains. It was really neat as alot of them are from the 50's and 60's. It felt like we were on the set of an I Love Lucy episode or something. We found out they do 2-3 hour train rides with themes, like Murder Mystery, Halloween Ghost Stories and North Pole Express (during Christmas of course) and so we will definatly be signing up for that soon.
