We changed to another doctor and are thrilled with their office. What a change from the last doctor we visited. I hate that our pediatrician doesn't take our insurance, but we've been able to find a new one for now. I am most likely going to change back whenever our insurance changes. Anyway, for now we are happy. Ashton is growing like crazy! He's 22 pounds now and 30 inches. He is so much bigger than his brothers were at this age, for sure. We took him off the bottle 3 weeks ago and it was a breeze. Ashton had already been using a sippy cup for a few months to have watered down juice or just water. Ashton stopped using his pacifier at about 6 months too....so Mommy is happy! Right around that same time he decided that he didn't want to eat mushy baby food anymore as well. So, now at 1 he is already eating a whole PB&J sandwich and can eat a whole grilled cheese sandwich. It's amazing how much this boy will eat! He loves chicken and beef and all his green veggies. He's trying to talk a lot more too. Of course he can say the standard Mommy, Daddy, etc. but he will point to things and say "THAT" which totally cracks me up! I've been trying to get him to say Juice, but when I ask him if he wants juice he will get his cup and bring it to me. He's a hoot. Aden taught Ashton to say his name, lots of repitition, nothing like listening to "Aden, Aden, Aden, Aden" over and over again. Very sweet though. Ashton is walking all over the place but still crawls to get to things faster. He was walking just before he turned 11 months, without assistance. Now he's walking about 85% of the time. This first year has gone by quickly.....but it's so awesome to see my three boys playing and interacting together. I'm loving every minute of it!!!
