12 month Check Up

Yesterday Tyler had his 12 month doctor's appointment. The doctor said everything was fine, however it was an extremely rough day for Tyler. It started when they had to check his temperature the rather uncomfortable way. Then the doctor ordered some blood work to be done. With most 1 year olds, they have to be checked for lead exposure and anemia. He did get to sit on my lap for that test, however he had found the needle to be pretty painful. They put a cool yellow bee bandage around his arm to stop the bleeding. Then to top his day off, we were sent down to get his immunizations, where he received 3 in total. To say the least, he was pretty happy to get out of the clinic and while we waited for Daddy to finish work, he took a long nap.
Tyler weighed in at 20 lbs 13 oz making him eligible to sit in his new car seat!
