Daddy and Landon were flying solo at the doctors office today while Mommy was stuck at work. Our little chunky monkey is now 11 pounds 9 ounces and in the 54 percentile! He is still in the higher percentile for height, 69%, with a towering height of 23.5 inches long. His head circumference is 15.55 inches and he is in the 36th percentile, which is not a Diffenderfer quality!

Landon had 2 shots in his legs and one was oral. Some of the shots were combination, but the vaccines he received today were: DTaP, HIB, Pneumococcal, IPV, and Rotavirus. Poor Dad had to hold him still while he got all his shots and cried his little eyes out. He still doesn't have any tears, but Doctor Wilde said his tear ducts look good and we should see tears very soon!
Chad asked him about his stuffy nose. We have been using a saline mist to clean out the mucus and it has been helping. Dr. Wilde listened to his chest and said he doesn't have a cold. He attributed Landon's coughing to saliva and mucus draining in his throat. The sneezes he says are normal as well, which we knew because he has been sneezing daily since the day he was born.
Dr. Wilde tested Landon's neck strength today by holding him out with his face towards the ground. He commented that Landon was very strong. Chad and I already knew that because he has been holding his head up really well for awhile now! Dr. Wilde tested his joints and said, "good." So all in all it was a great check up.

After Landon's doctor appointment, Landon went back to school and Chad went back to work. Landon doesn't have to go back to the doctor until the end of June. I believe he will get more shots then as well.
