Friday was John's 18-month check-up with Dr. K. John is quite well. He still has a head the size of a kasaba melon and he's perfectly average in height. He is slightly under weight. He's in the 10th percentile. Maureen seems to think that his cold has something to do with it. You'd think a boy with me as his father would have no problem putting on weight. If he doesn't start bulking up, we're going to have to start giving him MetRx in his milk. That should help him.
BTW, Maureen was pretty good about tricking Dr. K. He asked about John's cold and she said, "Oh, he's doing so much better and he really loves the cherry flavored Robitussin." Dr. K didn't know what to say until Maureen said, "Ha, ha, I'm just joking." For a minute, I believed her. Also, she told a bit of a fib. She said that John doesn't use a bottle. He's using it less and less, but he still does use a bottle. Shame on Maureen.
