Luke's one year check up!

Luke is in the 75th percentile for height (he is tall).
Luke is in the 35th percentile for weight (he is skinny).
Luke's head is lower than the bottom line (his head is super tiny).
The doctor is accustomed to seeing Latin/dark children
so when he said "he looks a little pale!" we all laughed.
Turns out he was pale. He is anemic. Whatever that means.
He got some iron vitamins and is otherwise doing great.
No paracites (jungle hazzards :) )
Growing well.
He got two shots and only cried a little.
We got a good report. Praise the Lord.

It means he needs more red meat!! Give the boy some beef. Jeremy should like that.

Isaiah was in the 12th percentile on weight and the 90th percentile on height at his one year check-up.

About the parasites... it's probably because Isaiah took them home with him.
