Last Monday (11/17/08) Mommy took me to my 6-month doctor's appointment. I weigh 18 pounds 13 ounces and am 27 1/2" tall (95%). My head is 16 3/4" around (50%). The doctor examined me and told me that I am a very strong girl. He bent my legs to check my hips and I pushed him right back. He laughed and called me 'thunder thighs' because my legs are big and strong. I watched him very intently through out the whole exam. He told me at one point that I am so engaging that he forgets what he is doing and what he needs to do next. He was happy that I haven't started getting stranger anxiety yet because he was able to enjoy holding me for a little while. He checked my mouth and said that he didn't see any signs of teeth yet. That made mommy happy. She's not ready for me to have teeth yet.
I did really well when the nurse came in to give me my shots. I barely cried. I got four shots and she gave me three Band-Aids. They had roadrunner on them this time. I pulled them off all my myself when mommy changed my diaper later in the day.
My next appointment will be when I am nine months old.
