8 1/2 month checkup

Zachary had his checkup with Dr. Jolet on Monday. The good news was he didn't have to get any shots, but he did have to get some blood drawn from his finger. I think they check for lead and anemia, but I'm not sure. Anyway, he weighs 24 pounds (97th percentile), is 30.5 inches long (>97%), with a 48 cm head (>97%). So he is now on the chart in weight but has stretched out some.

He is really starting to crawl now - he can get a few knee crawls in, then drops to his belly and marine crawls the rest of the way. He knows 'give me five!' and is almost waving bye-bye. His hair is really growing in now too. He is so much fun!
