6 month appointment

Watching cars
James Peyton
We had our 6 month appointment at our pediatrician's today. Dr. Smith said James is doing great and is so strong! He is already crawling everywhere. It is more of an army crawl on his forearms but he is so fast! I will leave him on the floor in the den playing with toys, walk to the kitchen, look down and he is beside me. He also likes pulling on the curtains in his room and has discovered that opening cabinets is fun. Time to baby proof the house! Below are James' stats from our appointment today:

Length 28 inches (95th percentile)
Weight 19 pounds (75th percentile)
Head 17 3/4 inches (80th percentile)

He seems to be consistent with his growth rate. He has been in the 95th percentile for length and 75th percentile for weight since he was 2 weeks old. Our next appointment will be when he is 9 months old!

The pictures above are from James sitting and watching the cars go by out his window. He LOVES watching cars! He is sitting up by himself really well now, without wobbling, but I put him in the bumbo seat so he would be a little higher up so he could see out the window better!
