6 month well checkup

Vera had her well checkup today. She loves Daddy's flag on his uniform so we were playing around with it on her diaper.


She is a very healthy baby. She had to get more shots and cried. It is so hard to see your baby in pain like that.
The best news we got was that her heart sounded great, no murmor! She is getting so big too.
Weight 18.5 pounds 90%tile
Length is 26 inches 50%tile
Head circumference is at 18.5 inches >100%
We always joke around that our daughter has a big head. Big head means she has a smart brain. The doctor assured us that her big head is fine. She has consistantly had a big head and Mom and Dad have big heads which is hereditary.
She is napping off her shots and hopefully will wake up like nothing ever happened!

Her head is perfect. Of course she is smart just like her Aunt Mindy. She is beautiful too. I just wish she didn't have to get the shots. Poor little baby girl. Give her a kiss & a hug from me. Love You! Aunt Mindy

glad to hear about the murmur. wow! miller didn't weigh 18 pounds until his 9 month checkup. and he has a big head too but not 100% head. she's going to be bigger than miller by the time they meet. hehe! glad she did well with the shots. i know they suck but they're for her own good.
