Brooks had his first hair cut (really more of trim) by daddy,
We had our first visit to Scottish Rite,
And our first meet and greet at school,
And he had his 18 month appointment yesterday.
18 month stats:
Weight- 27 lbs (85%, whoa he is a deceivingly thick boy)
Height- 32.3 (50%)
Head- 49 (95%= genius)
So we went to Scottish Rite after a little dog incident Sunday night,
I am so thankful to have such a great children's hospital so close by.
He just got about 4 stitches, no biggie,
but so sad to see him hurt,
the funniest part was when the meds kicked in and he got a little loopy,
Our incident was minor and he is doing fine,
all I could think about while we were there was about all the other parents that have to spend hours every day at the hospital for stuff like chemo or other serious health problems with their child,
I almost teared up passing by other kiddos with bad illnesses,
I can not even imagine watching your child go through medical procedures over and over.
We met a little boy name Garrett on our way out who is there everyday for chemo.
Garrett loves cars just like Brooks and his mom lets him pick out a new car at the store after each round of chemo,
we are now praying for Garrett and his sweet mom!
I also have such a new appreciation for children's doctors and nurses,
they have a very special calling.

He has his first day of MMO/school on Thursday,
so we got to meet his teachers today.
I think he is really going to enjoy this time, (and so will mommy).
He just goes once a week which I think we'll be treasured time once baby #2 comes.
And dad gave him his first trim,
