Samantha is 6 months old today! Wow. She has moved over to the “big” kids side of the infant room at the daycare because she’s one of the oldest! It’s so hard to believe that she’s already that old. So, she had her 6 month check up yesterday. She still has a cold/cough, so the doctor was concerned about her ears. She does have a slight ear infection, so she’s on antibiotic now. Maybe she’ll be feeling better soon. And for the first time, she actually ran a fever today after her shots. Her teeth (or lack thereof) have really been bothering her lately, so maybe we’ll start seeing something. Oh yeah – she’s 16 lbs (55 percentile), and 26 1/2″ (75 percentile).

Four-month Check Up
Samantha had her 4 month check up last week. It’s a little late, but she’s still doing great! We have permission to start feeding her rice cereal, but we haven’t tried it yet. When we get a free weekend, we’ll give it a try. She weighed 14 lbs 3.5 oz, and was 25″ long. She’s about average for weight and a little longer than normal. She doesn’t get the tall genes from Brian or me, so we’ll see if she keeps it up.
Baptism is Coming Up!
Samantha’s baptism is on January 27, 2008. It will be after the 11 am mass at Prince of Peace. All are welcome! Let us know if you’re coming!
Another Check Up
Samantha had her next check up yesterday. She’s growing and doing very well. She now weighs 10 lbs 8.5 oz! That’s in the 70th percentile. She’s also longer (22″ at 50th percentile) and her head is still small (14″ at 25th percentile). She had her first round of vaccines, so she wasn’t feeling well for the rest of the day. But she did feel well enough to help her daddy have a happy birthday!
First Check Up
Samantha had her first check up today, and she is doing very well. She has gained a lot of weight, so the doctor is pleased. She’s up to 7 lbs, 6 oz! At two weeks, she’s supposed to be back up to her birth weight, so she must be a healthy eater!
