stats

Jonah had his six-month doctor's appointment yesterday. The nurse weighed and measured him and gave him his next set of shots. He weighs 16 lbs 9 oz, measures 27 inches, and his head circumference is 16 3/4". That means he has gained a little less than two pounds and grown about two inches in the last two months. In height, he is in the 75% for his age; in weight, in the 30%. He is on the thin side, but most likely not for long since he recently began eating solid foods.

Lately he's been enjoying his rice cereal quite a bit. We are thinking of adding another feeding each day! In about a week we plan to introduce some type of a veggie. We tried carrot a few days ago, but it was promptly rejected! Perhaps it was too soon or it wasn't mashed up smoothly enough. We will probably try peas or sweet potato next. Of course, we will keep you posted.

Tim took a couple of short videos with our digital camera of Jonah eating his rice cereal. I will post those shortly.
