Healthy Baby

Claire had her 6 month doctor's appointment yesterday. (at 6 months, 3 weeks old) She was proclaimed healthy and "SO strong" by the doctor. She was 15 lbs 8.8oz (30-35 percentile) and 26.75 inches tall (70th percentile).

Since it has been many days since we've posted an update, here are MANY pictures to make up for that:



Claire enjoys "reading" the newspaper and the advertisements on Sundays when we are reading them on the floor.


She likes to make a mess, too.


The "Claire Tornado" has been through here.


She's so happy, most all of the time.


Her first soccer picture with dad:


Claire likes eating banana, rice cereal, oatmeal, avocado, and sweet potatoes. She tried peas for the first time last night. Here is the response to the offered second bite:

I guess that's a no. But we gradually mixed some into her cereal and she was liking it by the end of dinner.

Claire likes to look at the world from a different perspective occasionally. A good reminder for all of us.

I like the last picture the best.

I like the "just chillin" picture at the end too. She looks like she just had a very satisfying meal. Probably with bacon. Mmmm...bacon.

By the way, the "SO strong" proclamation by the doctor is practice for the "SO big!" games to come. Get ready, it goes on SO long after you've heard enough.
