Doctor Appointment

Yesterday was Sadie's six month check up. She got more shots, which she did very well with. We also discussed Sadie's difficulty (understatement!) with sleeping and developed a plan to try and conquer it (details to come!) She weighed in at 13 pounds, 14 ounces; measured in at 25.25 inches; and her head was 16.25 inches around. The biggest growth was her head! She's at 25th percentile, 50th percentile, 25th percentile, respectively.

But to me, the most exciting part of the appointment was "The Wave." Sadie and I have been working on waving hello for a little while now, and she'd gotten fairly good at waving back to me. Well, we walk in to the reception area, I turn my head, and turn back to see the receptionist waving at Sadie. I said, "If you give her a few seconds, she may wave back," and the receptionist said, "No, she waved to me first." So, of course, I was thrilled. Then, when the nurse brought Sadie back to weigh her, Sadie waved at her too. All by herself! Then, when the doctor walked in, Sadie waved at her! It was very exciting! My little show-off couldn't resist impressing her new doctor! (Who we loved, by the way!)
