9 Month Well Visit

Last Thursday afternoon, Shawn and I took Evan to see Dr. G for his 9 month well-visit.  Unfortunately, it ended up turning into a sick visit.  :(  Evan has a double ear infection.  His 5th ear infection in 5 months.  We were surprised to hear this after he hadn't really shown any signs like he had with his previous ones.  The dr. said they were pretty bad though, so he's back on antibiotics.  We'll go back in 3 weeks for yet another ear re-check.  Other than that, all looked well with him.  He got 1 shot and took it like a champ.  He did say we need to reduce his formula intake from 30 oz to closer to 24 oz.  Luckily Evan seems to be reducing it on his own.  Here are his stats from his appt:

Weight: 18 lbs, 11 oz (11%)
Height: 28 in. (37%)
Head: 18 in. (60%)

Even though he's still low in the weight %'s, Dr. G was happy with his weight gain since his last appt.  It's definitely not for lack of trying.  This boy eats all the time!!
