Six Month Check-up

I can't believe our little girl is 6 months old already! She's not a little baby anymore. :( I guess it's time to have another one, huh? Just joking, Chris. Anyway, she had her 6 month check-up this week. Poor little thing had to get 4 shots. I always conveniently have to go to the restroom when it's time for shots, and brave Daddy holds her still after I leave the room while she gets poked. Here's her cute little baby legs with band-aids on each poor little leg.

No worries, though, she's still happy as ever!

And she's even happier while partaking in her favorite past-time . . . chewing her feet! Anytime I take her socks off she gets those toes in her mouth immediately. Isn't it funny that chewing feet at this age is adorable, but it quickly turns to being disgusting in a few years. ha ha.

She got a clean bill of health from the doctor. And fortunately, she is slimming down (for a while there I thought we'd have a skinny boy and a little chunk for a daughter based on the rate she was growing) - here are her stats:

Weight: 15 lbs, 8 oz (25-50th percentile)
Height: 26 inches (50 - 75th percentile)
Head: 17 1/4 cm (75 - 90th percentile)

Being the Type A accountant that I am, I was frustrated that for some reason instead of telling us the EXACT percentile that she measured, they gave us ranges this time. So, I referenced my handy dandy book at home from the American Academy of Pediatrics, and it looks like she is 50th percentile for weight and 60th percentile for height if I looked at the little itty bitty chart correctly that is really hard to see (which helps me to understand why the almost-retired nurse chose to just give us ranges).
