Big Boy Stats

We had Luke's 6 month check up today... we are 2 weeks late, so I am sure these numbers are a little inflated...

Length: 28 1/4 (90%)

Weight: 18# 1 oz. (50%)

Brent said Luke cried at the shots... he is getting old enough that I fear he will start associating the Dr. with shots soon :( Glad I missed this. The Pediatrician went through his developmental check list and the only thing Luke isn't doing is babbling consonants (bahs and dahs), but he attributes that to Luke's ears being clogged up until now. Our homework is to work on that by getting right in his face so he can watch our lips move.

Our Big Boy! (a far cry from his "unable to thrive" newborn stats!)

Luke is eating 2 times a day now... oatmeal cereal and a fruit in the morning and cereal and a veggie in the evening... he takes BIG bites now-- some nights, I can't get the spoon refilled and back to his mouth fast enough before he opens his mouth to the "ready" position!
