Aidan's 6 Mth Appointment!!!

I know, I am once again very behind in my blogging! It drives me crazy that I have so much to update, and not enough time to get it done!

Aidan is growing so fast! It really is unbelievable that he is already 6 months old, and he is a very big boy! I took him for his 6 month well-check last week and he just keeps growing like a weed!

Here are his stats:

Height: 28.25 in. long (up from 25.25 in. @ 4 mth) - 90th percentile
Weight: 17 lbs. (up from 15 lbs. 7 oz) - 50th percentile
Head: 44.75 cm (up from 42.5 cm)

The doctor was really amazed by how tall he is for his age. I think he is definitely taking after his Daddy! She said he was very strong, as he does really well sitting up on his own and standing on his feet. He can also roll both ways! The doctor always thinks it is so funny that he just giggles and smiles at her when she is talking to me. She said she never gets smiles and giggles like that - normally the kids are crying because they are scared to get their shots!

Aidan continues to enjoy life! He adores his big sisters and his Daddy! If Daddy or one of the girls walk in the room, he just smiles & giggles with his whole body...he just can't stay still! He wouldn't know what to do if they weren't around. The girls love Aidan just as much. Abby says, almost every day, "Mom...Aidan is just the best brother ever!" Abby is a great little babysitter. She loves to have him sit between her legs on the floor and play. Ally is Aidan's entertainer. She is always standing over him or jumping up and down making him laugh.
