6 Month Well Visit

Mason went for his 6 month well visit today with Dr. Wiley! He did great! He had to have 4 shots today but took it like a champ! He cried less this time than last time. Dr. Wiley did say that since these were the same shots as last time, that he was more likely to have a stronger side effect to them this time! I thought great! Even more reason for him not to sleep!
Mason is a growing boy! He is 29 3/4 inches long, yes that puts him off of the charts once again! He weighs 20.4 which puts him in the 60% for his height! And his head circumference is 75%. So Mason is growing and looking great! He said that we can start on some of the meat mixed with veggies or fruit baby food! NASTY! I think Chicken with apples sounds horrible! We can also start giving him so mashed up bananas at the table, so pretty much what ever makes a mess.
Dr. Wiley also suggested that we baby proof our house in the coming weeks. Locks on the cabinets, CD's and DVD's need to be put up, socket covers, and baby gates to keep Mason safe! So I'm sure you will see pictures of our baby proof safe house! I kind of feel like he's Tommy Pickles on the show "Rugrats." I am really looking forward to the Mobile Mason! He's getting to be such a big boy and an even more joy in our lives!

i agree with the whole meat in a jar thing. I have never given it to my kids. it just grossed me out. I just wait until they can eat "real" meat themsleves. The baby food reminds me of dog food in a jar. yuck
