Johnny's 9 month check up

I guess my brain was so snotted up yesterday that I forgot to tell all about Johnny's check up from yesterday.  Basically he's a big, healthy boy.  I don't remember the numbers off hand but his weight and head circumference were somewhere in the 90's percentile and his height near 50th percentile.  The doctor was passing off the height measurement as an inaccurate read since Johnny is so squirmy that it's just difficult to get a good measurement.  Johnny didn't like his ears being looked at but he liked trying the get the light from Dr. Hutchinson.  No shots this time but there will be more at the 12 month check up.  Since Holiday's birthday is just 3 weeks before Johnny's I'll just piggy back them when it's time for Johnny's next check up, then we'll get all the shots over with together.  The doctor suspects John will be walking be the time she sees him again.  He's drooling like mad so maybe he's cooking up another batch of teeth.  Both the kids seem a little better from yesterday, at least they're sleeping pretty good.  They're not waking up in the middle of the night coughing or anything like that.  Holly had a couple crash 'n burns last night.  She always had this thing that she could do anything she wants and the universe was going to take care of her.  Maybe last night has opened her eyes that maybe she should listen to mommy and daddy when they say no running in the house and no jumping on the couch.  Slipping on the floor and falling off the couch on your head is less fun.  The night before she ran without looking and bowled Johnny over, but luckily he was on the rug...didn't even cry. She felt really bad about that one and was worried that she hurt Johnny, but he was fine.  David and I definitely have our hands full with a precocious toddler and infant that will soon be walking.  'Toddler' just doesn't seem like the right word for Holiday anymore she's so grown up.  Perhaps 'pre-schooler' would be more accurate.
