6 Month Check Up

Mia went in to see Dr. Hughes on Monday for her 6 month check up. She was 4 days shy of 6 months but I was off work so we made the appointment for that day. She weighed in at a healthy 16 pounds 3 ounces and is 24 3/4 inches long. Dr. Hughes says if her growth continues at it's current pattern she is on track to be about my height. That is fine with us! She is not yet rolling over from back to front yet but she tries so hard. I think she will master it any day. She is sitting up like such a big girl. She sat through her entire Dr. appointment with almost no support from us. She got 2 shots, one in each thigh and she didn't even cry. I was so proud of her. She made up for that later though. Her shots made her very fussy and she cried and cried for no reason. All I could do was hold her and rock her and try to calm her down. By the late afternoon she was doing better and almost back to normal. All in all she is a very healthy normal almost 6 month old baby girl. We are very blessed!
