Welcome to Christmas Break!

We made it! Break is here and we are lovin' it. This week we had B's 6 month check up. My little one weighs in at a surprising 20.2 lbs. I was thinking they were going to tell me 17 or 18 lbs, but no, she kept going right past those numbers on the scale and ended up resetting it once it became clear he was over the 20 lb mark. He's 27 3/4 '' long and his head has grown too, but lags behind in the percentiles from his height and weight. Due to the cold we've all been fighting B's goopy eye ended up needing some antibiotic ointment. We've been using it for a few days and it seems to be helping. He's also working on his fist tooth and is developing some diaper rash which leads me to believe that it won't be long before it emerges. Have I mentioned he really is the sweetest baby? He smiled and laughed throughout the entire visit- until the dreaded shots- he got 4- but even then his outburst of crying was short lived. Big brother was very helpful telling him, "It's ok, it's ok."
