18 month Check-up

Today was Graham's 18 month check-up. Before I get into the details of his appointment, the following pictures tell the story of how a very busy little boy amuses himself while waiting for the doctor...

Like we suspected, Graham is very healthy little guy! His pediatrician just loves him and even commented that she's going to go through "Graham Withdrawal" since his next check-up isn't until he turns two! I guess the fact that his check-ups will now be yearly instead of every few months means we're entering into true toddler territory-that and the fact that Graham believes he's a monkey and doesn't stop climbing until he physically can't get any higher! During his appointment, Graham was happy to share his new words, animal noises and his prized possession-his yellow bus. He even enticed the doctor to kiss his bus, which she patiently did with a smile on her face! :) When it was time to leave, Graham really didn't want to go. He would have rather stayed in the exam room and played with the round stool on wheels. Graham decided to plant his feet and wouldn't move so I had to pick his little 24.5 pound self up and carry him to the car. In between angry noises directed at his very mean Mother, he did pause long enough to blow kisses to the nurses and desk workers! :) What kind of child cries when they have to leave the doctors office?!?
