Paxten's Checkup

While Parker was at his first day of school, I took Paxten in for his 6 month check up, I know I am a little late since he is almost 7 months, but I wanted to wait until I could go and only have 2 kids with me instead of three.

Everything went great! Paxten is growing and developing normally. He now weighs, 14 lbs, 5.5 ounces and is 24 1/2 inches long. So he has gained about a lb and a half and grown 1/2 and inch since he checkup in June.

He has one little tooth in the bottom front and the other bottom tooth is not too far behind, I think it will be completley through in another week.

He can sit up all by himself for quite a while. This has been great because he can keep himself occupied for a little while with a few toys. Making my life a little bit easier.

He still isn't rolling over very much, but the doctor wasn't concerned and neither am I. I am sure he will do it on his own time.

He got his vaccinations as well and I always hate the look that kids give you when the needle first goes into their legs. The look of "mom why are you letting them do this to me?," and "mom why are you holding me down so they can do this to me?" It breaks my heart, but I do it for them, to protect them and I am sure they will thank me down the road, when they are older.
