Josh is 6 Months!

Today we went to Jake's 6 month check up. The verdict? He is going to be just like his big brother -- long and lean:
Weight: 16 lbs. 7 oz (28%)
Length: 27.25 in. (76%)
Head: 35%
(Okay so he does have a slightly larger head than Jake!)

That being said, he is moving into 9 month clothes now, especially for pants and PJ's because he is long.

The poor little guy had FIVE shots -- 4 in the thighs and one in the arm. Three of them were the usual vaccines and then he also got his seasonal flu shot and the H1N1 vaccine. Of course he screamed bloody murder for a couple seconds but as soon as I picked him up, he was fine. He just made me tear up a little is all :-(

I can't believe how quickly 6 months has gone by. He is going to be crawling and then walking and talking in no time. While I am incredibly excited to see what he is like and what he looks like when he is two and five and twelve, etc..., I very much want him to stay a happy baby forever. Very different feelings from when Jake was little and I couldn't wait for him to walk and talk and be a little person. Perhaps there will be a baby #3 after all!
