6-Month Stats!

Harper had her 6-month pediatrician appointment this week, and according to our pediatrician, she's in "excellent health." Here are her stats for those of you that are interested in that kind of thing:

Weight: 14 lbs, 1 oz (15th percentile)
Height: 24 1/2 inches (10th percentile)
Head size: 16 3/4 inches (50th percentile - again, she takes after her dad)

Here are a couple of pics from her appointment - hanging out in the waiting room with her dad and lounging on the exam table waiting for the doc.

Rice cereal?! I thought we were having fajitas!

Sorry for the lack of recent posts...again. We'll try to be better.

On to the fun stuff...Harper had her first taste of solid food today, and she seemed pretty disappointed that it didn't quite live up to the hype. She's been intently watching us eat and practicing her chewing motions with her mouth for weeks, so she was really excited to have a taste of the real stuff for herself.

Here she is all geared up for her first real feeding - of course Saber was insistent that she wear her Giants bib the first time.


Now for the big event:



And the aftermath - she was doing everything she could to let us know that she was not interested in the rice cereal that we were serving today.

She did seem to take a liking to the water that we put into a sippy cup for her - she was holding it herself and everything - Go Harper!
