6 month check up

Today Emerson had her 6 month well check/shots :( But it went real well!

Diet: Usually a 5 oz bottle, and about 2 jars of baby food a day! Mostly just fruits or vegies! But we have been giving her like pieces of little fruit, such as watermelon or cantaloupe!

Weight: 16 lbs 10 oz! hasn't quite doubled her birth weight yet. but she's in the 50th percentile!

Height: 26.5 inches,  75 percentile!

Favorite Toys: She loves balls! and keys! She also loves her johnny jumper! she likes swinging from it.

Active: She's sitting up and rolling everywhere! not quite crawling yet, but she tries pulling up on things!

Sleep Habits: Not good? hah. She still goes to bed around 9:30, but wakes up about 3-4 times because her paci fell out, and then sometimes we have to cuddle her back to sleep.

Over all her doctor's visit was great! Her doctor told me that I needed to start feeding her baby food while we eat, so she'll get into the routine of 3 meals a day! And she also asked me if she was rear facing (well, duh!) and then she proceeded to tell me that it's now recommended to keep them rearfacing for well over a year! Which surprised me because most doctors are just like well as long as they're 22 lbs. But it went great! It was the first time hunter got to go with us, because he didn't have to be at work until 4. After the appointment we went to Pie Slingers, a pizza place where hunter's friends work, so we got free lunch! and it was yummy! Then we came home, and Emerson has been asleep for about an hour! :)

  1. Yay for a healthy little one. My 18 mOnth old still wakes up a couple times a night:(

  2. Sounds like a good day. That is crazy she is pulling up at 6 months old. It is always good when Daddies get to go to checkups. :) I know my Hubby used to Love going because he didn't get to go very often. Yum for Pie Slingers! I am guessing you went to the new one in Fort O. If so, how is it?

    1. We went to the one in Ft.O! I wasn't expecting it to be so big inside! It was yummy! We got the chicken bacon ranch pizza, and cinnamon sticks! But the prices are definitely high. This was the first one hunter got to go to since her 2 week one!

  3. Yah. They are definitely expensive. I did not even know they were open yet. Do they look as cool inside as the other one does?
    Yah. It is hard when they can't go. My Husband went to a few of my appointments when I was pregnant, one was the ultrasound. The other was my first one where we heard the heartbeat, but he was always at school or work, so he missed a lot of the routine stuff. So Hunter works night shift most of the time?

    1. I've never been to any of the other ones! But it was real 80's like. They had a lot of KISS stuff, and the tables were like shadow boxes! He normally works 4-close which means he usually gets home around 11 or 12. But sometimes he works 11-4, but he likes working nights because he gets more tips!
