Today 10.5 month old Mateo finally had his 9 month appointment with his new pediatrician, Dr. Bourne. Dr. Bourne is fabulous! He’s got such a great way with kids, even as little as Mateo.
So Mateo is in the 25th percentile for head size (go, brain, go!), 50th percentile for height and 50th percentile for weight. He also finally got his polio vaccine and the flu vaccine (the regular kind).
In still more exciting news, Mateo now recognizes the word “papa” (he’ll usually point to Ilya) and seems to be trying to say gatito or gato (kitty or cat)–Ilya, I and Tia Cristy have all heard something that sounds gato-ish when he’s been looking at pictures of cats. Very exciting developments!
