Lena's Six Month Check Up

Today Lena had her six month check up. It was a little late because we had to switch pediatricians. Ours moved her practice to Hudsonville, and that is way too far for us to drive. But it worked out well because I was thinking of transferring Lena to the pediatrician at the complex in Caledonia that Jim and I have been going to. So, finding out her other doctor is moving kind of sealed the deal!

Anyway, the appointment went really well. Here are her stats:

Height: 27.5 inches (95th percentile)
Weight: 17 lbs. 7 oz. (75th percentile)
Head Circumference: 42.8 cm (50th percentile)

Can't say that I'm surprised to hear that she is longer than 95% of baby girls her age. It's pretty hard getting her clothes to fit right. If they are long enough, then they are baggy on the sides, and if they fit right on the sides, they are too short.

She got two more shots, and only cried for about 30 seconds. She's always such a trooper with the shots.

In other news, Happy Birthday to Grandpa Lee today! Sorry we can't be there to celebrate with you.
