The little boys had their 6 moth check up today. Everyone is healthy and much to Thor's dismay, now have their flu shot. (he was mad as this wasn't his doctor appointment, he just came for the stickers and suckers)
Wolfie was 26 1/2 inches long and 15 1/4 pounds. Long and thin like his Daddy. Head is 17 1/2 inches round.
Tyr is 28 inches long and 17 1/4 pounds. He is a hos. Solid little boy and blowing off the charts height wise.
Wolfie's eyes seem to be far apart and it creates the allusion that he is cross eyed at times. We have an appointment now with a pediatric vision specialist to make sure that his eyes are OK.
The doctor is also putting us in touch with the AEA to get both boys a development assessment. Tyr seems fine but there is concern that Wolfie is "on the low end of normal." I think the issues is actually that Wolfie has much better fine motor skills than most babies his age but his gross motor skills are falling behind. The specialist will tell us for sure and help us figure out what to do to bring everyone up to the same level. They should also be able to help us with grants for hearing aides for Wolfie should he need them.
At least the boys shouldn't be getting the flu...
