6 Month Well Baby Checkup

Yesterday, Logan had her 6 month well baby checkup. Logan weighed 15.5 lbs and measured 26.5 inches. Dr. Chunn said Logan can eat anything we eat that is mushy. Such as mashed potatoes, jello, bananas, guacamole, refried beans, etc. She can also have graham crackers, cheerios, and anything that can turn to mush in her mouth. Dr. Chunn also said that if we have a t-bone steak or chicken to take all of the gristle off of the bone but give it to her to suck on (I am not quite sure about this one). She can also start having whole milk. He said we should start by giving her 4 ounces of formula and then 2 ounces of whole milk mixed into her formula and do that for about a week and then slowing decrease the amount of formula.
I already read to Logan but he said, set a time every day when you read to her at least 10-15 minutes. He said to make sure and point out items because before her 1st birthday she should be pointing at objects in the book wanting me to tell her what they are. He said this is how they look for autism.
Logan also received 3 shots, which she of course wasn’t happy about! But at her next visit at 9 months, they said no shots! Dr. Chunn lifted her up to check her strength and she started crying…she was okay until he picked her up. He said she is going through the “stranger” phase, which we have already noticed.
She listened to every word he said and would give smiles to the Dr. Chunn. Overall he thought Logan looked great!

6 Months

Logan is 6 months old today! I was looking back at pictures of Logan the other day when she was less than an hour old to today and can't believe how much she has developed and changed. It is amazing to see all of the changes she goes through and we can't wait for more!

Pathway

Last weekend, Curt and I went and installed a paver pathway at my grandparent's house. My mom had spent a few weeks digging out the area and then Curt and I worked for 2 and a half days laying base rock, sand, and then the pavers. It turned out very well and we are jealous! I wish we had taken a picture of the "before." Oh well!

Playing

Here are a few more pictures of Logan I took tonight. She is reaching for her toys a lot more and holding onto her feet.

Logan 23 weeks

I haven't taken very many pictures in the last few days...here are some of Logan just after she got done eating some bananas. She sure loves eating things now! When you are scooping the spoon into the food, she already has her mouth open and ready. (these pictures were taken after I had already wiped her face off)

Playing dress-up

My mom saved a few items of clothing from when I was a baby. She dug those out and I have been dressing Logan in them to at least take a picture. I have only done a few outfits so far, I need to do the rest before she is too big. She looks like a little doll in the pictures.
