Emma had her 6 month well visit this morning. Her Gigi was here and got to go with us (which was kind of nice...I didn't have to carry the diaper bag, my purse the infant seat and Emma after she got her shots!). I'll start with her stats first. She weighs 12 lbs 11 oz (3-5 percentile) and is 25 1/4 inches tall (25 percentile). Her doctor said she is doing great and as long as she is growing, she is doing fine! We also got the go ahead to begin introducing fruits and veggies. The doctor said there is no reason to start one before the other. She had to get 3 shots today and did much better with them than the last shots! She cried for about 10 seconds and then got distracted by the pinwheel in the nurses office. After getting her bandaids, she went to her Gigi while I got everything together. She was happy...not crying...fine...until I looked at her and smiled. She looked at me, got a big frown and started crying, as if to say, "How could you let that mean lady do that to me?! My feelings are so hurt!" It just about broke my heart, but then she was fine again. Can we say DRAMA QUEEN? :) She was so tired after the appointment that she fell asleep on the way home. Mom and I just drove around for an hour or so to let her sleep. It was nice to visit with mom and Emma was able to sleep uninterrupted. Anyway, that's an update on the doctor's visit. She's a healthy, growing (albeit slowly) baby!! We rejoice and praise God!
