Daniel's 6 month check up

I took him in for his 6 month check up today. He is looking great and exactly right where he should be developmentally. He got 3 vaccinations and is sleeping right now (poor boy).

Body Length: 28.5" (96%)
Weight: 20.5 lbs. (90%)
Head Circumference: 46 cm (95%)

Neither Jacob or Daniel had a head circ. above 70% until now - so I'm kinda excited about that. His weight is down a little, but because he is so large and it wasn't a lot of weights loss she wasn't worried. He still only nurses and I just barely got him started on pears, so maybe that's why. Or maybe it's because he cut his second tooth this past Saturday, who knows. Also a result of his teething, his sleeping is unpredictable and I'm exhausted as a result of it. We are trying to help him get back in a schedule and he is fighting back pretty hard, stubborn boy.

Overall he is doing so well and I am so pleased to have him and to be his mom.

It sounds like things are going good, and hopefully Daniel will get back to his sleeping scedual. Its no fun when sleep is missed for you or the children.
