38!!!

That's how many inches tall little man is now!! That's over 3 feet!! I can't believe it but that's what he measured at the Dr.'s office on Thursday. And weighed 37 pounds. No wonder I feel like he's growing up too fast when his head reaches my belly button!

We saw the spine Dr. (orthopedic specialist) for a 6 month check-up on his scoliosis. He got an X-ray to see how well the brace is corrrecting the curve. All we really learned is that he's outgrown his brace & its time for a new one. We expected this b/c his brace is not fitting as well lately. So time for another torture session to get him fitted for a new one :(( But this will be a different type brace (TLSO) & hopefully be easier to put on but harder for Trey to get off b/c all the straps will be in the back.

We can tell by looking at his spine & tracing it w/ our fingers up his back that the curves are better. But the Dr. didn't say anything about that, just that it was time for a new one. She is very nice & gave Trey lots of hugs but is a woman of few words. So the news we found out was how tall he is growing.

I captured a sweet moment(between the tantrums & constant running around!) holding his Bolt stuffed animal. Bolt has been his favorite movie for awhile now.

 

Introducing...

the next up & coming country music star...toddler style! Trey decided to wear his Daddy's hat & would not look at me so I could get a pic! But I liked this one anyway. I'm not a country music fan at all but this photo looked like a country album cover to me.

 

Spring Valley Beach

 

 

 

 

Last weekend we went to the "country beach" for some pool time for Trey. The biggest pool ever! We didn't get to go down the huge slides because it rained after we were in the pool awhile but Trey had fun going down the slide in the kiddie pool.

He loved the rain & wanted to keep running out in the rain while we were trying to wait it out under a pavillion. The thunder didn't scare him a bit. But when the lightning started we had to go. Looking forward to next weekend when we go to the real beach!

Start 'em young...

Daddy & Trey listening to baseball together. Trey is learning to be a "ankees" fan!

 

I refuse to get sleepy!! Must finish the game with Da-da...



Lately Trey & Daddy have been listening to NY Yankees games on IPod Touch when they're not on TV. Amazing how Trey will sit still so long & listen! This is after getting dressed in his PJ's so he is ready for bed after sitting on the couch for awhile. He tells Mommy what's happening w/ the "ankees" "homerun Mommy!", "ankees win!"
