9 month check-up

So I took Jeremiah to the Dr. for his 9 month check up this past week. We went a little early because he has been fussing most of the time when he is eating his solids. He has been eating a bottle great, but when it comes to solids, he screams. So the Dr. wanted to do a weight check. He weighs 18 pounds 8 ounces. Which is smaller than what I wanted, but the Dr. said he looked great and healthy. He is 28 1/2 inches long which means we are about to be shopping for a new car seat. The Dr. suggested that I try giving him more textured foods because he maybe tired of baby food and ready for something else. So, I have given him bananas and cheerios so far.. He LOVES the cheerios. So please pray that Jeremiah would begin eating his solids ( it has gotten better) and that he would remain healthy.

And for those who know I have been battling with some health issues the last few months. Loss of appetite, nausea, anxiety, tiredness, irritability, just to name a few. I went to the Dr. this past week as well and Dr. Plessala thinks I am suffering from PMDD. So, I have to start taking BCP for that. Please pray that this will cure the problems and take them away. It has been miserable the past few months. And John David has had to live with it all!

Jeremiah is also really developing fast. He is into everything, which makes for an interesting and tiring day. His favorite thing is the dog bowl. He is cruising a little bit and pulling up on everything. This is definitely a fun stage.

Lastly, we are approaching match day fast. We will be turning in our rank list next week. Please pray for guidance as to who to rank where. Match day is March 19th.
