6 (and a half) Month Check Up

We had our 6 month check up today.  All went well.  Baby girl got a shot in each leg and an oral vaccine.  She cried for maybe 20 seconds and then was fine!  We discussed the progression of her eating baby foods.  Dr. Collins wants us to do 3 solid meals a day.  I think we'll aim for 2 right now.  Audrey has eaten and enjoyed carrots and butternut squash so far!  Such a big girl!  We also talked about  introducing a sippy cup soon, with the goal of transitioning by 1 year.  He explained the process of weaning over these next 6 months.  I think I'm going to have a harder time with that than Audrey! 

6 (and a half) month stats:

Weight:  14 lbs 13 oz  (25% percentile)
Height:  25 inches (10-25% percentile)
Head:  16.5 inches (25% percentile)

We've got ourselves a little peanut!!
