Trouble














At Nolan's last doctor's appointment, the doctor said he's only in the 3rd percentile for weight. His height is the 65th percentile and we're quite proud of that, although it doesn't seem like it could last with his very average parents. But back to the weight issue. It doesn't seem fair that he was weighed after being sick for 9 days. Normally he eats like a horse! But the doctor advised us to put butter on everything and give him PediaSure (I buy the store brand, of course). He loves it but manages to dribble it all down the front of him. I gave him his sippy cup and went in the other room and that's what I found. I'm unsure how he got it in his eye but he seems pretty happy about it. I guess drinking PediaSure will require a little help from Mom for a while.
Nolan also got into some trouble in the bathroom last night. I was helping Justin with some wiring (yes, more wiring...ug) while Nolan was turning on the bath water and feeling it as it trickles out. This activity is tolerable as long as he doesn't turn the water on too high. Well, I heard the water come gushing out at full power, I said, "Nolan, no no," and then I heard a series of thuds. I thought Justin had fallen off the ladder in the basement but then Nolan started fussing. This is what I found in the tub:
And once again, he's pretty happy about it. He's my little wet puppy! After getting over the fall into the tub (I wish I could have seen it, but maybe it's better I didn't) he didn't want to get out. I guess playing in the water is no longer a tolerable activity.
