Dillo's 9 month well child check

He's 21 pounds 3 oz (75%), 29 inches (75%) and developmentally normal and fine.

(For comparison, Casper was Weight: 22 pounds 12 ounces. (75%ile) Height: 28 3/4 inches. (95%ile) - the %iles are different because he is a boy and she is a girl. mr. flea the future giant was, at 9 months, 24 lbs even, 31 3/8 inches.)

But Dr. Betty looked in his ears and he has an ear infection. This is his first, so we've been lucky, given the day care and the fact that he's had a runny nose pretty much continuously since January. Amoxicillin it is.

(And yes we feel bad that our kid had an ear infection and we didn't realize it, even though he was not running a fever and did not seem fussy.)

Poor Dillo and his ear infection...although hopefully if he wasn't showing any bad signs, he was feeling okay. Still, it sounds like he's growing well. He's already heavier than Ellie, although she still has at least 5 inches on him
