Ayson had his six month check-up this morning. Everything went really well. Dr. Gordon was very pleased with his progress. She couldn't believe how good his muscle tone was, and said she thought he would be walking by a year...even though he was over 2 months early! She is also pretty sure his eyes will be staying blue...yay! He also received his last round of immunizations until he is a year old. Since he is 6 months old, he could also get a flu shot. We were really happy that he was finally able to get one, as it will further protect him from getting sick. We are still supposed to keep him isolated until mid-April...but hey, that's just right around the corner :)He weighed 13lbs 8ozs and was 24.5in long...tall and skinny! That means he gained 3lbs and grew 3 inches in two months! His head also grew from 39.75cm to 42 cm. On the adjusted scale which compares him to premature babies born less than 3lbs, he is in the 50th percentile for weight, 75th percentile for length, and 75th percentile for head circumference. Moving up the growth chart :) On the normal scale for 6 month olds, he has actually made it on the chart for head circumference at the 9th percentile :) We may actually register on the normal chart for length and weight at the next visit in 3 months!
Sitting up all by himself! Such a big little man :)
