Official Measurements

We just got back from our 6 month well visit at the doctor's office. Here is the run down of Cooper's measurements:

Weight - 20 lbs. 6 oz. (75% - 90% percentile)
Height - 28.5" (90% - 97% percentile)
Head Circumference - 17.5" (75% percentile)

I thought it was a little weird that this time they gave us ranges of his percentiles, but maybe that is normal. I definitely wouldn't know. So it looks like our little guy (or should I say big guy) is growing well and everything is great. The doctor said we can start feeding him more solids like meats and some table food (think mashed potatoes). I bet he will just love that! Does that mean Eddie and I get to eat more mashed potatoes? :-)

He was really good throughout the whole visit. Well, except for when the doctor had to look in his ears. He noticed some wax build up and he was getting it out and Cooper just started screaming. Crocodile tears and all. As soon as I held him when he was done, he was fine. Something about digging in his ears he must not like.

Well, that's the update for now. In case you were wondering, Cooper is back to sleeping through the night. We went a couple of weeks where he kept waking up. Thank goodness the good sleeping baby is back!
