September 22, 2006. Gretchen's 6 month check-up.

Every time we visit Dr. Alexander, it seems that Gretchen is moving up the growth percentiles. She is now above the 95th percentiles for both length (27.5 in) and weight (19 lbs 8 oz). We will have to install the big-girl carseat we received from Kelly's co-workers soon, since she's about to outgrow her infant carrier!

Gretchen can now sit up by herself very well, for long periods of time. She can stand up by herself if she's holding on to something. Her attention span is getting longer, although sometimes her toys make her mad. She loves people, especially other kids. It is easy to make her laugh, and she loves to play peek-a-boo. She now eats rice cereal, peas, bananas, and pears. We picked up some baby oatmeal and butternut squash to try next!

Thanks for the great weekend! While the ballgame was great, I was more thrilled with the chance to play with Gretchen for a few days!
