you did more new stuff!




we took you to the doctor for your 6 month check-up on friday. he said you were healthy as can be. he noticed your little bit of stranger anxiety, since you mostly just stared at him this time instead of smiling. we have all decided you're a little scared of men without beards. sam went through the same thing when he was little. you cried when durko held you the other day, and you whimpered when trevor just looked at you at church. soon you'll figure out that these guys are fun and not scary! pappy won you over, but it took some time.

you're 16lbs. 11oz., that's the 75th percentile.
you're 27 inches long, and that's the 90th percentile.
margie said you have really long legs and arms, and now that she mentions it, i think she's right.

the doctor said it's time to start with solids, so we gave you some oatmeal. you love it! and you are so interested in actually eating the food, you hardly make a mess at all so far. here's a picture of you enjoying your spoon. sam helped us show you how the whole eating with silverware thing works.

you also wen't swimming for the first time over the weekend. you love the water, and you like to lick it while you're in your floatie. yummy, chlorine!

love, mom
