Last week I took Samantha for her 6 month check-up. She got an A+ all around! Happy and waiting to see Dr. Walley…
Her stats: height 26.5 inches (75th to 95th%), weight 16 lbs, 12 oz (75th to 95th %) and head circumference 16 3/4 (50 to 75th %). That means she grew a full inch and gained a whole pound in only 1 month!
Compared to her brothers at 6 months: Maxwell was 26 and something inches long and 15 lbs, 13 oz. I’m a little surprised that Samantha is a full pound heavier than Maxwell was at this age. Spencer was 27.5 inches long and 18 lbs, 3 oz. (!) All healthy babies!
Samantha wasn’t too happy when I had to hand her over to Nurse Shelly to get weighed, but then she finally came back around and was pretty pleasant for Dr. Walley.
We’re always thankful for good doctor reports! I sure do love all 16 lbs, 12 oz of this chunky little baby!
In other news, that night we gave Samantha baby food for the first time. She had some bananas and liked them…sort of.
She’s growing up a little more every day!
Love that precious little face and love good doctor’s reports!
Hooray for good reports!
I saw for myself what a pretty healthy baby she is. Her brothers are making good progress, too.
Those legs have made my entire life!!!! She is the cutest chunk ever!!!
