You have become much more tolerant of solids over the past week. You are trying a lot of new things, and generally liking everything. You even love peas which is really surprising to me! I have also learned that if you hate something (i.e. oatmeal) I should just add applesauce to it and you will eat it all up. No matter what it is, if I add applesauce to it, you love it. I am glad that you love apples as much as I do! They are the best food ever :-)
According to the doctor, you have dropped down from the tenth percentile to the third but I just looked at a growth chart on Kellymom and you are still in the tenth percentile. Maybe she read your weight from last time instead of this time. I don't know, but I am not gonna worry about it too much. The doctor is not concerned, saying that she knows you will just be a small kid, especially since your dad and I are on the tiny side. She does want you to eat more though. You always seem satisfied though and seem to get full so I am not going to force feed you. You seem to be thriving in all other areas, you are content, and are sleeping well so I find it hard to believe that you are starving.
Your 6 month appointment went well. You are growing tall, you are now 26 inches long and 15.7 pounds. You had to get a few shots which you did not like, of course, but you were too busy flirting with the nurses to be too upset. The nurses all especially loved you this time. a few came in to keep you company while you got your shots, and then the receptionists all gathered around to see you when we were checking out. Everyone commented on your strikingly blue eyes, and how you look like a "commercial baby". Of course, we know that you are the best looking baby in all the world, but we love it when other people notice too :-)
