All is good. His stats continue to be consistent. Here you go for those keeping score at home...
- Height: 32 1/8 (80th percentile)
- Weight: 26 lbs (75th percentile) - feels like forty pounds!
- Head girth: 19 3/4 (off the charts)
He keeps growing at the same clip every time. Something did change today, though. Now that he is walking the vaccination shots now go into his arm. Today was the MMR shot. For some parents, this is a hotly debated and incredibly emotional topic.
Looking out the window Gilbert's radar picked up a construction crane in the vicinity and he wanted to watch it the rest of the visit. Great distraction for the shots!
On that, a special court ruled on Thursday that there is no connection between MMR shots and autism. For those parents desperatly seeking a reason behind autism this is a blow to that theory. For Team Johnson, not getting the vaccinations was never even considered. However, I know some parents think differently. All I can say is by not vaccinating, all babies are put at risk their first year by being around kids that are not vaccinated. Very scary.
Gilbert is fast asleep and we are already enjoying our four day weekend!
