5 shots and I don't mean tequila

The day after Kellan's birthday, he had his 1 year check up.  23 lbs, 12oz (65%) and 31" (95%).  He's thinned out since becoming mobile, but he's still a big kid!  He checked out just fine, we got cleared for milk (still working our way into that one), but then he had to have 5 shots.  OUCHIE!  He screamed pretty good, got some tough-guy band-aids, and was better by the time we got to the car.  We met Aunt Leslie and Uncle Dave out for breakfast, he was happy there eating applesauce and chewing on a straw, but crashed out when we got home.  His arms were a little sore the rest of the day, and he FINALLY got around to opening his birthday presents!!!


He got the hang of the paper-ripping right away.
He spent about 15 minutes throwing 2 balls at once and chasing them down.  Screaming and squealing the whole time.  He's so funny!!!!

Trucks!!!!  We were sorely lacking in boy-toys.  And....say goodbye to the binky, Doc said it's time.  We're actually on Day 2 of no binky, and he's doing just fine.  I think it was more a distraction than a necessity.
A wagon!  We noticed he loves dragging things around, and Aunt Leslie scored this wagon on the clearance rack at Toys R Us.  Besides the goose egg that Makenna got trying to surf in it later that night, it has been the fave.
Tough-guy band-aids.
GRRRR!!!!!

Sweet guy.
Makenna had been using her fleece winter gloves to work in the yard with Papa.  They found come CARS! kid-sized gardening gloves.  PERFECT!  This is her strawberry plant....fingers crossed that she doesn't pick all the flowers before we get berries.

She turned the hose on us, little stinker!!!
Thanks for visiting, Aunt Leslie and Uncle Dave!!!
