Magglio has SIX teeth now – his top two came in about a week ago. Six teeth! My apologies for not posting lately, but last week was super stressful (more about that below).
Magglio had his 9 month appointment on Sept 14th. He’s in the 50th percentile for weight but in the 90th percentile for height! He’s grown over 3 inches in the past three months, which explains why I’ve had to cut the feet out of all his pajamas.
At his 9 month appointment he also got a vaccination (I space them out) and we think he had a reaction to the shot. Two days later he was running a fever of 103.5. Both he and I were miserable – I just felt bad for my poor guy and there wasn’t much we could do other than give him lots of Tylenol and breastmilk. After a few days, he was back to his normal bubbly self. Of course, then I got sick and had a fever of 102 which lasted for three hellish days. I suspect it may have been H1N1, so hopefully now we’re vaccinated for life.
Here are some new pictures of Magglio that I took today. You can see his chompers in all their pearly white glory:
He was eating a ham and cheese sandwhich ALL BY HIMSELF. So, please excuse the food, but these pictures are cute!
And he’s such a big boy, he drinks from his sippy cup.
Another picture, slightly unfocused, but a good shot of his new teeth:
And then in this picture he was thinking, “Mom, you’re a NUT!”
I cannot believe he is eating a ham and cheese! Luke stores away meat in his cheek like a squirrel. He likes cheese though. And he will not hold his sippy cup. Mag is a total rock star!
To be fair, I do cut up Magglio’s sandwiches in little bite sized squares. But he gobbles it right up!
