Six month check up

The Lils had her 6 month check up on Friday. She is officially a big girl! She weighed in at 17 pounds and was 25 inches long.
She officially has a tooth! It is hard to see because she doesn't like to show it off very often, but it is there. And if you put your finger in her mouth, you can certainly feel it.

The doctor said that she was looking good. Ear infection is gone, the snot is a normal thing as cold as it is around here these days. She also said that Lilly was advanced in some things. That she will continue to advance and it will be fast. We had better hold on! And make notes of all the milestones while they happen, so we won't forget.

I think separation anxiety is kicking in. The doctor says it is about the time for it. But the doctor says it is also a sign of intelligence. So as much as it may stink for me, it is great for her. :)

Have I mentioned how much I would hate being a nurse in a pediatrician's office? They get to be the ones to give kids the shots. I felt sorry for the lady who gave Lils her shots. She got kicked and screamed at and abused by Lils cause she was too strong to be held down. Poor lady. She seemed none too thrilled in having to give the shot. And needless to say, Lils was none too thrilled to get it.
But she is sleeping now and hopefully, having good dreams about things like kitty cats and milk, and will be able to forget for a while about that mean nurse and the terrible shots!
