Fun Pictures and an Update!

It has been a while since I had a chance to last update, we have been very busy here in the Wood household. Last week Charlie celebrated his first Thanksgiving and I know he had a blast. He ate his weight in sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes and was quit mad when we didn't let him have anymore. We would have to say that this Thanksgiving we were truly blessed with this little life that was giving to us as well as our family's.

On Friday instead of going shopping at 4am we toke Charlie to see Dr. Joe for his 6 month appointment. Charlie got a good bill of health and Dr. Joe told us to keep doing exactly what we were doing because he looked perfectly healthy. We will have to go back once a month for the next few months to keep a close eye on his ears, since they still have a little bit of fluid in them. Charlie also got 4 shots 3 of which were immunizations and the fourth was the first round of his flu shot, he will get the second round when we go back in a month. Another first for Charlie was his first bruise, it was caused by one of his shots, the nurse said she might have hit a blood vessel when she gave him the shot but there wasn't anything to be worried about. As far as doctors appointments go I will have to say that this was by far the best one we had in the last month since Charlie wasn't sick. As far as his stats go he is doing great and growing and there is no longer an issue with his weight, he is still in the 5% for weight but he is moving up on the curve and as long as he does the doctor says that it is okay especially since he gained almost 3lbs in the last 2 months.
