2nd Doctor Visit


On Friday September 29, 2006, Matthew had his second official visit with Dr. Sherman.
He is now 22 months old. As of yesterday Matthew is now 23 lbs and 33 3/4 inches tall. He is growing. Not fast but consistent. Dr. Sherman is very happy with his progress in all areas. Matthew is climbing, running, jumping and now walking up and down the stairs holding onto the handrail. A sign of independence for him and another reason for me to clutch my heart.
Since the vaccination records from the "Big House" were incomplete Dr. Sherman is re-doing all of them. Yesterday was round 2 of 3. 4 shots yesterday and one blood test. He is doing better with this round, ran a fever last night and a low one today but running around like crazy. I'm in the processs of redoing my Wizard of Oz room/office so I just took this picture of Matthew a few minutes ago.

    Dear Debbie,

    Please don't let the Doc talk you into giving Matthew so many shots at once. Please, it really is better that Matthew get only one or two MAX, I don't care what they say. A fever is a bad sign and nothing to take lightly. Again, I don't care what they say.
    Comment out of love an concern from an experienced Mommy.
    Love

    Matthew is growing so much!! It sounds like he is getting taller and staying thin. Brett weighed 24.3 pounds but only 31 inches. Matthew is so handsome!!

    Your blog is quite an inspiration to adoptive parents. Congrats on your 'little man!' He's a doll.
