6 Month Check-Up

Last Friday Eli had his 6 month check-up. He weighed 15.6 lbs (13th percentile) and is 27 inches (62nd percentile). His weight surprised me because he only gained 2 ounces since his 4 month visit and because I weighed him about a month ago and he was nearly 17lbs. Plus he is a big eater. He did grow 1.5 inches and has been teething so his doctor was not too concerned but does want us to add a spoon full of cereal to his baby food as well as bring him back in a month for a weight check.
Eli was at or above all of his milestones and had a good check-up. He got several shots again this time but hardly shed a tear. The shots did make him sleepy and he fell asleep while playing with his toy during tummy time after we got home. I got tickled because he was sound asleep and still holding on to his toy.
