That's right... this little bug is six months old! She actually turned six months last weekend, but she just had her six month checkup at the doctor yesterday. The doctor called her a "butterball" and said that everything looks perfect. She was surprised that her weight-gain hasn't slowed down, as I guess many non-formula babies' weight drops about this time. Nope, we have a good eater on our hands! At least she comes by it honestly :). She got her six-month shots, and this time her dad had the pleasure of holding her down for them. I think he enjoyed the tears just about as much as she did. But the good news is, no shots for another six months! Just a finger stick at nine months. And of course she got weighed and measured. She's staying just about the same on the growth charts. Here are her latest stats:
Weight: 18 lbs, 8.8 oz (96%)
Length: 27.5 inches (86%)
Head Circumference: 42.2 cm (47%)
Just think... in another six months we'll be planning a birthday bash!
