Thomas was sick for his last trip to the pediatrician, so he wasnt given his shots and the doctor didnt check him out all that much. We were a little disappointed with the visit in general as we waited over an hour (past our appt time) to see the doctor. We've also had troubles getting a human on the phone over at the doctors office too. We had really liked the practice but now we are seriously thinking that the doctors are overwhelmed and there are always dozens of kids running around the waiting room. Even though the little guy was sick he still managed to smile and laugh at everyone. We go back in next week. As of this past weekend, Thomas now has four teeth fully out on top, the same two on the bottom, and two more poking through on the top. This coming week we will introduce some proteins into his solids diet (oh wonderful) and see how that treats his digestive system. He definitely doesnt like apples or bananas. But he sure does like sweet potatoes and squash and peas! We also started freezing yo baby yogurts for him to suck on to soothe his budding teeth. He has become absolutely charming and he looks into your face with this earnest gaze as if to say, "I like you. Now show me something new!" He loves the Gypsy Kings. And his first words............Dada.
