9 almost 10

Brighton had his nine month check-up today, but he's really almost 10 months - just one week away. The coolest part of today's doctor's appointment was that there were no shots. Yippee!! That was an unexpected gift for all of us today even though the doctor did tell us they pretty much make up for it when we go up for his one year visit. That's not until after school is out though, and in my mind that seems much more manageable.
We were thinking Bright was slimming down, and we were right. He weighs 22 pounds and is 29 inches putting him around the 60th percentile for height and weight; that's down from the 90th percentile. He only added an inch and about a pound and a half since his last appointment in December. He still eats like a champ, but maybe all the exercise he is getting has something to do with it. He is a hyper-active explorer - into everything! He wobbles around (very close to walking we think) with that large, 90th percentile, simling, and noisy noggin of his.

You know that I miss being able to see Bright growing in person. I'm sure every moment (or almost every moment) is amazing to watch. Our nephew Henry is the same height and almost the same weight (minus 1/2 pound--he probably just had a good diaper), so I can imagine how big he is now.
