We were concerned that he wasn't necessarily crawling (he's doing the army style crawl with his upper body -- see video a few posts back), but the doctor told us that many babies don't crawl and since he's pulling himself up that he is already past the crawling milestone, so that doesn't make sense according to traditional theory. We're also good with his food and other milestones.
We mentioned that Markus cries when he sees a new person with facial hair, most notably a goatee, and the doctor said that this is pretty common for children this age. So, no hard feelings Eddie and Mike D.! Glasses can also cause this, but since Sandra and I wear glasses at home, I think Markus is used to that change. In fact, he loves reaching for them/licking them (lol) despite our "No!" warnings.
Well, that's it for the check up. He's healthy and happy, just the way we like him!
