I was a little worried about this appointment just because I have been having a lot of trouble with KK lately. I was worried because I have a hard time getting him to eat. I felt like he didn't gain much and is just a tiny little thing. Thank goodness the doctor calmed my fears and said he looks great.
I tried to pick her brain about KK not sleeping through the night and him being fussy when he is playing on the floor. She really didn't give me much except that he is a BUSY BODY. She asked how his parents personalities are and I had to admit that YUP it's me I am a busy body. Well at least I know he is mine and I have helped shape who he is going to become. Maybe that means he will be a go getter!! She also talked about maybe since he is close to walking that once he is able to walk he will be able to go and get what he wants and reduce the fuss. I hope!!
I felt much better when I left the office and KK slept in the car on the way there and back. I took him over to daycare and her and I talked for awhile about him and our "plan". I feel much better. We both looked at each other and said we are going to be tired chasing after this one. But I am happy about where he is during the day. Ms. Ana loves KK and I know he is learning and in good hands while I work.
Kiernan is pulling up on EVERYTHING. He would rather stand and lean on something than sit. He is letting go and standing for 2 or 3 seconds and then falling. Ms. Ana said he even tried to move a foot to walk. He loves green beans and sweet potatoes. He is into the 2 Gerber. He hates peas and mixed berries. His favorite though is plain old rice cereal. YUCK!! He is still not a great sleeper during the day and has his moments at night. I get comments where ever we go about how beautiful he is.
To be honest, I think I figured out today that my lil boy is fine and maybe it is his mommy who needs to learn her son a little bit more. :) Happy 9 months kiddo!
