Here's our big boy!  He went to the doctor on Friday and weighed 29 lbs 2 oz and was 33 1/4 inches tall.  90th percentile for both height and weight.  The doctor was impressed with his growth and encouraged us to keep doing what we are doing.  That might be feeding him zucchini, he loves zucchini.  Dr. M was pretty impressed with that.  My only concern with Easton is his vocabulary but Dr. M says that is completely normal for an 18 month old boy who is #3.  He does have 5 words though, Mommy, Daddy, Hi, This, and That.  Dr. M said his vocabulary will take off here in the next few months.  He encouraged me to track it on the refrigerator so I will be doing that.  Writing his new words down as he says them and the date and you can see how it will go from one new word a month to one new word every other week, to one new word a week to more than you can count in no time.  Should be fun to track it this way and have that as a keepsake.
As you can see his hair is a little shaggy looking, not any more.  He had a hair cut on Saturday and looks so handsome.  He always looks handsome but he looks all cleaned up.  He had to have one shot and he did fine.  He just likes to snuggle his mommy when it's all done.  When we got home it was very quiet as the girls were with Grandma Vugteveen at the mall for a little while.  Just having one is something we aren't used to and neither is Easton.  He loves having his sisters around.
