Today’s news: Alexandra had her six-month check-up. Which included two shots, plus an oral vaccine…lucky Alex! She actually was a trooper and I’m pleased to report that Ian, the nurse and I all still have intact eardrums. In addition, we have our latest update on her stats:
- Length: 2′ 3″ … 89th percentile — we’re measuring in feet and inches, not just inches!
- Weight: 17 lb, 7 oz … 72nd percentile — weight is finally getting in-line with her height (and before anyone worries, the doctor is pleased with her weight gain, so we’re all good)
- Head Circumference: 45 cm … she’s literally off-the-chart, as “100th percentile” isn’t really possible — what can we say? We all knew she was off-the-charts for cuteness, and maybe it went to her head. (HAH! I so funny.)
(If you’d like to compare to her prior measurements, check out this post.)
Also on Alexandra’s social schedule this week was brunch with Grams and Grandpa, where she discovered the joys of empty plastic containers. Thanks to Grams for the video!
She looks a bit stoned in the still shot of the video, but she’s not drugged. She’s just drunk with happiness. It’s a just over a minute, which is a solid time-to-cuteness ratio:
