Six month checkup!

So this evening we had Luke's six month checkup, and it went really well! He weighs 13lb 11oz, so he's gained 1lb 10oz since his four month appointment. His height is now 24.5 inches, which is 1 inch taller than at four months. He's definitely a little guy - he's on the low end of the growth chart, but the doctors are very happy with how he's growing. As long as he keeps growing like he is, they're fine with that. The doctor recommended that we start giving him prunes with his cereal, then add different fruits and veggies week by week. We can also try giving him a sippy cup soon, and closer to nine months, we can begin giving him finger foods - cheerios, puffs, etc. So exciting!! Of course, he had to get his third round of vaccinations tonight, which is never fun.....

  1. Hope you have a decent night's sleep. He seems to be doing really well. I love the 'conversation' video!
