6 Month Dr. Appointment

Rachel had her 6 month doctors appointment today. She weighs 16 pounds 13 ounces (50th percentile), 26 and 1/4 inches long (60th percentile), and has a 42 cm (25th percentile) head circumference. She got 2 shots and 1 oral vaccination again. She was such a brave little girl. It was the same shots as the last time and she barely cried this time. I have one tough girl on my hands. She showed Dr. Jacobs how she can talk, stand, sit, etc. Everything the doctor wanted to see, Rachel showed her. Soooo, the soft spot on her head is really small. Dr. Jacobs want us to make an appointment with a neurologist to make sure that it is okay. I hate hearing stuff like this. I am sure that everything is okay, but please send a prayer our way just in case.



On a brighter note, Rachel is 28 weeks old today. She is pretty much sitting up on her own. She tips over, but she can usually stay up for about 20 minutes on her own. She has become pretty ticklish and has such an beautiful smile. She is becoming so strong. She likes to torment the cats and I think they can use a little tormenting. I have so much fun with her everyday and love her more and more every minute I spend with her.
