Yogi's Six Month Check Up

image

Yesterday was our six month visit with Dr. Wonderful and the little dude is now big enough to sit and wait patiently in his own chair.  Funny.  Everything looked good to the doctor and he was particularly pleased with the state of his ears after the illness we had a few weeks back.  Although we decided not to run the lab to make sure, Dr. Wonderful was fairly confident that it was RSV when we came to the office for our first sick baby visit.  Apparently ear infections are a common follow-up to RSV and the fact that Yogi didn't have that complication suggests that he has "good ears".  Hooray for that!  My wife has terrible ears, so perhaps Yogi didn't inherit those?  That would be nice.

Here are the details:


  • 27" long (70th percentile)

  • 14lbs 8oz (7th percentile)

  • 16.5" (4th percentile)


While it's possible that he didn't get my wife's ears, it is clear that he got her tiny head. :)

Adorable!! The beautiful baldness adds a certain sense of authority to his pose. As if to say "The Doctor is in, that'll be 5 cents please!"

He's so lanky! I love his expression. Up to something, hmm?

Thanks for the nudge r.e. writing more, too. I needed the motivation! My blogging has taken a back seat to huge life shenanigans, but I've been missing it.
