Six month doctor appointment

We had Logan's six month check-up last week and this time I was a lot smarter. Last time he was due for his four month check-up Austin was also due for his 2 year appointment so I scheduled them both at the same time during the day, which meant I had to take them both by myself. Well, I sort of forgot that Austin is old enough now to know where he is going and what happens at the doctors office....SHOTS!!! So needless to say I didn't really get to pay much attention to Logan's appointment because I was busy trying to calm Austin down. So, this time I scheduled Logan's appointment for a time when I could take Austin to day care and be able to focus just on Logan. The appointment went well. Developmentally he is right on track...well except for the fact that he is now 6 1/2 months old and still cant roll. Austin was super late rolling too, but he rolled for the first time right around this time, so hopefully Logan will decide to move anytime now. He can sit up really good though, and he is enjoying seeing the world from a more vertical point of view. As far as measurements he was right at 20 pounds (85 percentile) and was 27" (80 percentile)...so he is a little bit smaller then Austin was at this age about 1 1/2 pounds smaller and 1" shorter, but he was a little late eating food, so he may play catch up here soon. He is finally eating full containers of food, so I'm no longer worried that I will have the child that goes to kindergarten on the bottle:):)Everything else looked good at the appointment, he is a happy, healthy boy growing right on schedule....for now we are just waiting to experience his first roll, then we might have to do a little baby proofing:):)
