18 Month Stats/Pics/Video

Treyson had his 18 month well-child checkup today. He did very well. He weighed in at 29.13 pounds (80th percentile), measured 33.98 inches long (85th percentile), and measured 19.61 inches around his brainy head (90th percentile). He checked out well all around.

Here he was when Dadoo pulled up next to us at the doctor's office. He FREAKS OUT whenever Dadoo comes home, walks out of work, etc. He LOVES his Dadoo!! (You can't tell he's slightly spastic with his moves because I just took my point-and-shoot, but it was all out excitement!)

Dadoo carried him into the office (Treyson loves to be snuggled into his coat like this).

Treyson also has been cleared with his toes. Some of you knew that Treyson was born with bilateral syndactyly. That's a fancy way of saying that his 2nd and 3rd toe on each foot was webbed. So he had that surgically repaired February 1. He did really well with his recovery, and his orthopaedic surgeon was very pleased with the result and the very minor amount of scar tissue present. We noticed it when we got home from the hospital right after he was born, but it was advised to wait on surgery until after he was 1 year old due to the anesthesia. Nobody in our family has it, so we thought it was rather strange that he had it, but nonetheless....he doesn't anymore!

Here's the before:

And after:

Jerry teased that I was taking away his dream of being the next Michael Phelps (can't hurt to have webbed toes to make you go faster, right?), but I seriously doubt that with his structure he would be an olympian. So now Jerry has changed focus and is trying to prep Treyson to be a quarterback. He'll be a very LARGE quarterback, but he does have quite the arm! Jerry says that if he plays football, we're going for the glory this time (hmmmm.....sounds like somebody doesn't think the offensive line gets enough recognition? haha)

Now, to the video. Treyson has a favorite word.....well, maybe it's because it happens to be a word he hears ALL.THE.TIME!!!! We like to tease with him. Here is an example when we were playing in his room earlier.
