6-month check-up


We went to our new Portland pediatrician this morning for Dustin's 6-month checkup. You can see from the picture at the left that Dustin enjoyed the outing. He LOVES paper. The crinklier the better. We generally try to keep paper away from him, because the inks and treatments are not usually designed to be eaten. But the sterile examination bench paper seemed like a reasonable option of paper to allow him to play with. I remember bringing the tiny, immobile newborn baby to his 2-day pediatrician appointment back in July, where we could just set him on the paper, and he could not do anything with his arms, eyes, head, or anything. How much our baby has changed and grown in just a half year!

The shots weren't too bad. He cried briefly, and then seemed to forget about it. The pediatrician told us that we have a normal, healthy baby boy. But I could have told you that before we even walked into the doctor's office.
