No, not the deliciousness that is a brown cow (you Bizzo-ites are following me right?). I'm talking about my big boy! The C-ster is a big six month old and had his big appointment today. How many times can I use the word big? Somebody get this girl a thesaurus!
Ok, anyways!! The results?
Weight: 18 lb 2 oz --> 59th percentile
Height: 26.5 in --> 49th percentile
Head Circ: 43.5 cm --> 40th percentile
No vaccines, BUT a Rx for amoxicillin... and a diagnosis of a double ear infection. Arrg... Poor guy, he tugged on his ears a little bit, but was not super fussy - and when he was we assumed teeth (two more coming in on top!).
Funny M story of the day:
While I was talking to the doctor I set M up with some crayons and a coloring page (thanks to our wonderful and thoughtful daycare gal). I was answering questions and estimating milk intake, hours of rest, you know just crunching the numbers, when Dr. W says, "Oh honey, let's not color there." M had taken it upon herself to start coloring on the walls -- something she has never done before! (Tables, YES, walls, no.) Of COURSE why not start in public?? M got superduper embarrassed and started all out bawling. Dr. W felt absolutely terrible, but I maintained that M a) needs to not be coloring on walls! and b) needs to be ok with being corrected - especially so kindly by any adult. Sweet thing did eventually calm down. When we talked about it later in the car, she said, "I was crying because I just REALLY wanted to color on the wall!" Well, I guess at least she was honest!

Poor honey with an ear infection! But other than that, he sounds healthy with those stats!
That's an awesome M story! At least she tried it somewhere else and not your house, you didn't have to clean it up. Sounds like my little drama-mama, crying with every scolding, that's why I can laugh at you! :)
Yeah, Jalen's first wall coloring came right after Jeremy painted our kitchen! (you can still see the artwork if you haven't yet, we haven't gotten around to painting over it).
