Hayden - Six Months

We started the month off with some new foods - Rice cereal, sweet potatoes, peas, bananas and applesauce. We were thrilled with how excited she was for each one and how much she was eating. Not so thrilled with the fact her spit-up was now different colors, but whatever. Our carpet would survive and chubby thighs were on the horizon. Hayden's 6 month check-up today pretty much popped that balloon.

Weight: 13lbs 14oz (9%)
Length: 26in (45%)
Head: 46cm (99%)

The nurse measured her head twice. Twice! The doctor came in and didn't believe the results and measured it a third time. It's huge, people! Just accept it! Our little bobblehead was put on a special diet due to the 9% - Extra 1/2 scoop of formula in her bottles and foods with protein (Stage 2 - chicken & noodles, turkey & rice, etc). I thought she was too young for this, but will do whatever the doctor says to get her where she needs to be.

Developmentally, she's a rockstar.
