6-month wellness check

Noah had his six-month check up today. His overall health and development is really good. I did have a concern about a loose-sounding cough that's been around for over a month now, but it turns out that is related to Noah's reflux and nothing to be too concerned about.

Weight: 18 pounds, 9 ounces (65%)
Length: 26 3/4 inches (58%)
Head: 43.75 cm (50%)

Noah's percentiles are WAY lower than Emma's were at his age (or ever have been). Up until her last appointment she has never been below 94%. She's now dropped down to about 88%.

Emma had a really hard time watching Noah get his shots. I actually almost had to abandon Noah and comfort Emma, but she pulled through okay. Noah, on the other hand, only cried for a moment, and has done really well, other than slightly abbreviated naps. What a good sport!
