12 Month Check-up

Roman had his 12 month well baby visit today. Percentiles were great.

Height-30.5'' ~74%~

Weight- 23lbs ~54%~

head circumference- 18.3" ~54%~

The shots about killed both of us! Do they get worse every time? He screamed harder than ever before. He started holding his breath to the point he almost passed out. My heart panicked when I realized he wasn't taking a breath. We've had a few of these "breath holding spells" where he's passed out before. One that even caused a possible seizure like episode. So scary. Thankfully, blowing in his mouth got him to breathe before he passed out this time. I know immunizing is best for him. I just hate it.

We're in need of a new car seat. Lots to look for and consider. Any suggestions?

Roman's 1st Birthday...

Last weekend our little man turned 1! I can hardly believe it... Not already!!! I've told Todd a hundred times that I just want to freeze time right where it is. But time keeps going and I enjoy life even more. I still think it though. I can't help it. Time goes too fast. Some people say a child becomes a toddler when they walk others when they turn 1. Either way he's not my little baby anymore!! But that's okay because even though Roman has reached that milestone he still loves to be chased, still loves for me to hold him, still gives us kiss attacks like I do to him. Life is still getting better.

We watch a slide show of his 1st year, opened presents and had fun watching Roman eat his cake while eating ours.

He was a little unsure about the cake at first. He wanted to pick at it with a spoon. Eventually taking a bite or two with his hands.

Thanks for coming to celebrate and for all the gifts everyone! We love you.
