5 Month Appointment

So, what brings you in today asked the doctor? Amy responded with, just getting a 5-month checkup. The doctor said I normally don't do 5-month appointments, so let's just talk (the doctor at the 4-month appt. said that he likes to see his patients every month until 6 months and our new insurance pays the bill for it, so why not?). Jacob was very active and trying to take off the nurses glasses and moving anything he could get his hands on. He has definitely reached the stage that if it isn't nailed down, it could be moved...
During the visit and relatively quickly, the dr. said that we need to get his eye cleared up. Yep, that's right, Jacob's left eye still isn't right once again. She gave us another prescription for drops and said that if it wasn't cleared up by 8 months, Jacob would have a procedure to fix the drainage issue. At this point, the procedure would be done in the doctor's office. After this point, he would need to be put out and the procedure, etc. wasn't discussed at this point. If it is still an issue, we will address it at his 6-month appt.
Other than that, Jacob is an active growing boy and still hasn't lost his touch in flirting with this doctor. Amy is still convinced that this is Jacob's favorite. Jacob's stats for this visit are that he is 25-3/4" tall and weighs 15 pounds, 14 ounces.
