Clayton's 9 Month Check Up

Clayton had his 9 month check up yesterday and he is 28 3/4 inches tall (70%) and 19 lbs 8 oz (35%) and has a head circumference of 46 1/2 cm (85%). I was a little worried about his weight dipping to the 35th per cent tile (he's typically been about 50-55%). But his pediatrician explained that often once a baby starts moving around and crawling he is burning a lot more energy and may establish a new growth pattern. She suspects that to be the case! He only had one shot and did a really good job, he only cried a little bit, but it still breaks mommy's heart!
