Check-Up







The above pictures are of Kate enjoying her new big girl high chair and of her learning to sit by herself. She sure is growing up before our very eyes.

Yesterday she had her six month check-up. It's such fun going to the doctor. I just love seeing how much she weighs and how tall she is...loads of fun. She now weighs 16 1/2 pounds which keeps her right on track in the 75th percentile. Her height remains in the 100th percentile at 28 3/4"! She has a very long torso and will probably be taller than me!

She did very well with her shots, and for the third time only whimpering for a quick second when she got one of her shots (it's the kind that hurts when the vaccine goes into her little body...not the needle). Naturally, I had a LONG list of questions...and all of her little issues are normal. We've started two-a-day solid feedings which has been fun in her big girl chair. She has a fruit and a veggie in the morning, and then a fruit, a veggie and oatmeal cereal in the evening. It's really helping with the sleeping through the night...although the thumping of her legs continues. I'm going to try to get video of this as it is HILARIOUS!
It's raining again today...which now that Kate loves being outside...makes it sad that we have to stay in...but, we have Gymboree today...our last class with the little ones. We move to the 6-9 month group next week!
Have a great day!
