6 month check up

Since our girl is now 6 months old she had to go to the doctor for a check up and another round of immunizations. Only one poke in each leg and an oral immunization this time. Abigail did really well, only crying a little for the initial pokes. After it was all over she smiled at the nurse! Also, after noticing Abigail tug at her left ear this weekend it was discovered that she has her first ear infection. It's only mild and in the left ear, not both! I never would have known other than her tugging at it, she hasn't been cranky at all. Check out how much she's grown in 6 months:

Weight at birth: 7 lbs. 2.9 oz.

Weight at 6 mo: 15 lbs. 11 oz.

Height at birth: 19 1/4 inches

Height at 6 mo: 26 inches

The doctor said she was "tall for her age" but was less than average for weight at her age. She's grown 6 3/4 inches in 6 months! Of course if she doubles her weight in the next 6 months she'll weigh as much as her brother does! She has to go back to the doctor on September 10th so they can check her ears again and then back for another check up at 9 months.

Austin also has to go to the appointment on the 10th because I want his allergies and/or asthma re-evaluated. He also has to go to his ENT on the 11th to have his tubes checked again.
