Jason is a cheerful, silly little monkey! He loves music, reading stories, and playing with his toys. He can almost say "ball," and if you ask him to find you a specific toy, he picks it out right away. He loves yogurt, chicken tikka masala, and broccoli, but his favorite food is scrambled eggs.
Jason had a checkup the day after his birthday, and his doctor was very impressed with his growth! Her exact words were "Wow, he shot up in the ranks!" He's in the 35th percentile for height. He weighs a solid 20 pounds, but I can't remember what percentile that is.
Jason also needed three shots at this checkup. Usually after his shots, he'll cry for a minute or two but cheer up pretty quickly. This time was different though. He sobbed so hard the nurses said he was breaking their hearts :-(. He kept burying his head in my shoulder and crying. That afternoon, Babci came over to watch him while I baked his birthday treats, and he sobbed on her too. It was so sad.
Fortunately, he was good as new for his birthday party! We went with a woodland creatures theme.
Jason opened his presents with a lot of help from Mommy and Aunt Val.
Dave made a big batch of delicious chili, which Jason thoroughly enjoyed. Then it was time for cake!
And because we didn't think chocolate cake would get him wired enough, we gave him his first taste of ice cream too.
