6 month appt.

She has grown SO much!

Our last day in the hospital

our first whole day home

crazy, big 6th month old baby girl!

I have a horrible headache and am headed to lie down while Matney is asleep but promised I'd put this info up.

Matney's appt. went great. She weighs 17lbs 10oz and is in the 80th percentile. I had it wrong earlier and thought it was the 90th but she's not that big yet! She is 26.25in tall which is the 69th percentile. Her weight could have been an ounce off because she was chewing on her rings and SCREAMED when we tried to take them from her to put her on the scale so we let her keep them and they may have added an ounce! The dr was very impressed with all that she is able to do (sit up, fake cough, etc) and said we are doing great!

We do have to see an eye dr in the next month though. If you have noticed in the pictures Matney has had a clogged tear duct since she was about a month old. She always either has a tear running down her face or goop in the corner of her eye. The eye doctor will decide if we can continue to monitor it or if she will need a procedure to unclog it. Please pray that we can avoid surgery at this point...we do not want to have to put this baby girl to sleep!!!!

And shots don't slow this girl down. I am typing with her in my arms now because she is already awake. No dark, quiet room for this mommy's head!
