One Year Check-Up

Brock had his one year check-up yesterday.  Overall, his health is fantastic. The only thing our physician was concerned about was his weight.  He lost weight since our last appointment.  But, in all fairness, he's also been sick for about two weeks with a cold and his usually hearty appetite has been lost.  He just started feeling better yesterday and sure enough, he ate like a champ.  We are confident his weight will bounce back in no time. 

Aside from the four shots, the appointment was a huge success.  Poor kid was crying so hard tears were rolling down his cheeks but he couldn't make any real sounds - just those breath holding squeaks.  My heart ached for hours after that.

Here are his vitals from day one and one year later...
