"12" month appointment

Which actually happened closer to 13 months, but you get the idea.

Stats
Height 30.75 in (70th percentile)
Weight 22lbs 12oz (44th percentile)
8 teeth (with 4 molars all coming in at the same time)

Chanler can
Walk
Dance
Spin
Say ball (baa), dog (duh), balloon (baa-oo) and of course mama and dada (all of which can have alternative meaning depending on context)
Give hugs and kisses (kisses can be a little scary - they are open mouth, tongue out, grap your head to hold on and long! but so sweet)
Help get dressed (he is very good at putting his arms in the holes and loves to try to pull things over his head

Dr. Joseph seemed to think Chanler was doing fine and cleared him for citrus, strawberries and peanut butter. I think the only things to watch out for from an eating perspective now are choking hazards. Our one question was about Chanler's habit of head butting things, people, shopping carts, etc. The Dr. said it is normal behavior and he is using the hardest part of his head so it won't do any real damage. She stressed that we should not let him know that it upsets us or give him whatever he wants when he does it because that would just encourage him. :p
