medical report

this week heidi had her 12 month dr checkup. she is on track developmentally and is healthy. here are here numbers:

weight: 19 lbs 1.5 ounces, 15th percentile
height: 29.5", 50th percentile
head circumference: 17.9", 60th percentile

while there, lea anne had the dr check out boden's ears. over the last few weeks he has been constantly asking us to repeat and say things louder. he has also complained about his ears hurting. turns out he has fluid behind his ears, which is causing his ear drum to not vibrate properly. one ear has the beginning of an ear infection, but it doesn't appear that this is the cause of the fluid. we suspect that allergies may have caused the fluid problem. we have him on some medicine and then we are going to have him checked again in a month to see if it is any better. in the meantime we will keep on yelling.

Poor Bodie. No one believed he was deaf! Hope he's not allergic to everything. Wouldn't surprise anyone I'm sure with allergies on both sides.
