A day of updates- 6 Months

Luke is 6 months old! I have a 6 month picture with him wearing the month stickers from Aunt Kate, I promise.

We had his 6 month check up yesterday that included a flu shot, 3 others and an oral vaccine. So he had a total of 5 doses yesterday. He was a bit cranky last night but nothing tylenol and some cuddles couldn't cure.

Weight 18lbs, 5 oz= 66%

Length 27 1/4"= 89%

Head 17 1/4"= 85%

He is also cutting his first tooth! It's not in yet but the doctor could feel it making it's way through. So here we go...

His weight hasn't gone up quite like we thought, but I think that's due to his lack of appetite from the AWFUL double ear infection he's been fighting off this week. The poor little man also has a ruptured ear drum from that infection.

Then we went to check out his helmet at WFBMC and see how it's working. Good news- we only have 2 more months of wearing it instead of 4 more like we originally planned! The picture below baffles me. Look at his cheeks and nose. You couldn't even see his face or his ears from the picture in December!
