Remember the vicious daycare germs? Well, they struck again! Micah had his second ear infection in February! (Personally, I think that the first ear infection just lingered on for several weeks.) And, if that weren't enough, while we were visiting family in Houston, Micah caught a stomach bug and shared it with the family! Ugh, that was a rough weekend!
When we visited his pediatrician to follow up on the ear infection, Micah had lost a few pounds and, subsequently, dropped slightly below his growth curve. The majority of the weight loss was, more than likely, due to the recurrent illnesses, however, some of it was probably due to the fact that Micah has turned into a very picky eater. (More on this later...) Luckily, after adding Pediasure and an extra meal during the day, he quickly returned to his normal growth curve.
By the end of February, Micah had mastered cruising along the furniture, the walls, and with his Fisher Price Lion Walker. He also learned how to say the words "please", "more", "eat", and "milk" in sign language.
