My 6 Month Appointment!

Hi Guys,

I saw Dr. Barb this week and I'm healthy as a horse! (or piggy) I weighed in at 21 lb -4.5 oz (95%), 28.5 in long (95%) and my head is right on 18 inches around (95%). Dr. Barb said that I am definitely getting enough calories from milk alone and the fact that I don't like baby food isn't an issue at this point! I got two shots and a drink also. The other shot that I was supposed to get had gone bad over the weekend when the power to the office fridge had gone out. I will get that one later this fall when Joey and I go in for our flu shots. I have been feeling pretty yucky since my appointment though. I have been stuffed up and not sleeping too good. It could be a side effect from my shots, but mom thinks that it's just sinus related since dad and grandma have both been feeling really yucky lately too.

This week Bruce has been going to town on our yard. The whole thing is dirt at this point and there have been a lot of big loud machines around here. I am a little scared of them and would rather just keep my distance. You'll have to check Joey's blog if you want to read all about it. He would watch diggers all day if he could!

This week I am getting to be a pro at my walker. I cruise all around the kitchen and have even been trying to get the cabinets to open up. I can pull on the handles, but my walker gets in the way of opening them. Mom said something about baby locks!? I don't know what those are, but hopefully they are for the cabinets and not for me!

I am also starting to practice using my sippy cup. I don't have the hang of it yet, but Joey seems to think that I should start to use one. We'll see. It is pretty neat to look at!

Oh, one more thing! My Halloween costume got here today=) Mom seems really excited and said that it's better than she hoped it would be! (something about shopping online and quality?) Joey and I are dressing as a pair this year. What we're going to be is a secret until Halloween though! I am going to be having my October pictures taken in it, and Mom is making Joey's costume, so we had to pick mine out early. I am cranky right now and need a nap, but I will probably try it on as soon as I wake up.

That is about all of the news in my world...

Have a good weekend
