6 month dr. appointment

Well after a VERY long afternoon in the dr.'s office (the health care system needs a BIG overhaul) we finally got Reese's shots taken care of and got her current stats. Just as I suspected she's healthy and very full of energy. The doctor rolled her over on her belly to show me how to try and get her to practice crawling...needless to say he efforts failed as she was very content to just lay there and tear up the paper on the table. What can I say the kid loves paper.
She weighed 16 lbs and 11 oz...and was 25.5 inches long. Just as we suspected she's short for her weight. She's a little husky just like her Dad...I shall call her Huskette. She was a trooper and got three shots, only screamed for a second and as soon as it was over she played with the nurse like they were best friends (even though we all know who is really her best friend...Chewbaby).
Other than that she was a healthy kid, not problems to report and hopefully we won't have to go back to see him until she's 9 months old. Keep your fingers crossed that she doesn't get sick, despite all the kids in the office who were there because they were sick and whose mothers could have cared less that they were coughing all over the healthy babies and not covering their mouth. Manners people really...they are not hard to teach.
