Yesterday Connor had his 6 month check-up. Thankfully Aaron was able to go with me to his appointment.
Daddy was making him laugh.
We only waited for about 10 minutes when the nurse came and got us. We love her and she is so good with Connor. We went back to her office and she weighed and measured him He weighed 20 pounds, 1 ounce (88%) and was 27 inches long (75%).
Just after he got weighed.
They measured his head next and then got his vital signs. He was acting so serious! The nurse could not get him to smile no matter how hard she tried.
No smiles for the nurse today!
His heart rate was elevated from jumping on daddy's lap!
I love that they always get Aaron involved in weighing him and holding
him during the assessment. I am there to ask and answer their
questions. Once we got done talking with the nurse, we went back to the waiting room to wait for the doctor. We wrapped Connor up in a blanket instead of getting him dressed then undressing him again for the doctor.
All warm and snuggly
We spent about 15-20 minutes with the doctor. She looked over Connor and answered all of our questions about flying with a baby and feeding him baby food. After seeing her, we headed to the immunization clinic. Aaron played with Connor and kept him happy while we waited.
Connor loves being tossed up in the air.
Shots weren't too bad. I waited with a bottle for him as usual. He cried for just a few seconds and then stopped. On our way home, Connor fell asleep. My poor little guy had a rough afternoon.
I'm glad we got that over with. His next check-up isn't until he is 9 months old, and he won't have to get any shots at that visit. Yay!
