Brynlee's 6 Month Check Up

Brynlee had her 6 month check up last week.  She is doing great!  She still has some congestion/coughing which she has had since she was 2 months old.  So far we have all decided it is something she will outgrow or possible a sign that she will have allergies or possibly asthma issues when she is older.  It doesn't bother her at all.  She has always eaten well, slept well, played well, been happy.  Also her lungs, ears, etc. have always been clear at the doctor. 

These are her 6 Month stats:                                    Grady's 6 Month Stats:

Weight:  16 lbs. 7 oz   (60%)                                    Weight:  15 lbs (5%)
Height:  26 in (70%)                                                  Height:  24.5 in (5%)
Head:  16.75 in (51%)                                                25%

She seems so much bigger than G was, but she isn't really THAT much bigger than he was.  He was just so much more petite which made him seem smaller I think.  He is still pretty petite in his hips/waist.  Trying to find pants that fit him this fall has been an issue.  He needs the length of 2T, but they just fall right off of his waist!  I was hoping he would be able to do 2T's finally this fall, but 18 month is still best for him...or 12 month.  But that is another story!

She is a little above average in everything, which I was not surprised by based on the size of clothes she wears and the way they fit.  She is pretty much in all 6 month clothes, but some 12 month stuff fits okay if it is smaller fitting.  She is quickly growing out of the 6 month stuff though, I'm about ready to bring out the 9 month sleepers, which very fittingly are mostly all fleece!  Should be perfect for the colder weather. 

She is still really trying to pull herself up on everything.  Why can't she just be content with crawling for awhile!!  Do we really have to be pulling ourself up already?!?!  :)  She crawls all over the house and follows me everywhere!  She is kind of an unusual crawler and never scooted or army crawled, went straight into crawling on her hands and knees. 

She is doing great at Kellan's for daycare.  Kellan loves her and says it is so much fun to have a little girl, she is used to little boys now!  (Her son is 12 months, and the baby before Brynlee was a boy.)  Grady loves having her there and is always asking where she is if he can't see her or has to go up and say hi to her.  Which is what he does at home too!  He is such a sweet big brother!  Thankfully!
