6 month well check

I took Kylie into the doctor today for her 6 month well-baby check up and immunizations.  She's 25.75 inches long (around the 40-45th percentile) and weighs 18 pounds and 4 ounces (around the 80th percentile), which means at 6 months old she still has not doubled her birth weight!  She's much shorter and a little lighter than Keilana and Dylan were at this age, but she did well.  She got four shots today and she grimaced and whimpered a little bit, but didn't cry at all until the last shot was given, then stopped as soon as the nurse let her leg go.  She fell asleep on the ride home :)

She's a happy, curious little girl.  She started REALLY crawling this week (rather than scooting or inch worming).  Its still a new skill, and so she belly flops out and scoots occasionally, but for the most part she's a crawler.  She chews like a puppy (and, like a puppy, her favorite chew toys always seem to be shoes).  She has her two bottom teeth, which surprised me when they popped up last month (Keilana and Dylan didn't have teeth until almost 9 months).  She is trying to pull herself to a stand on everything in sight, so falls are becoming quite commonplace.  She has started trying to get up the stairs, but fortunately all she can do so far is pull herself up to a stand on the second one (heaven help us when she figures out how to get those legs up onto the step.  She has hit the age where her favorite activity is pulling all the DVDs off the DVD stand.  So, in short, she's lots of fun and a big nuisance!
