Another doctor appt? This one was not fun!

Today mommy went to work but she came and got me 1/2 way thru the day.  I was so happy to see her but she took me to the doctor.  I thought we were done with doctors but turns out today was my 6 month check up.  Ok mommy, I was 6 months old 10 days ago.  I guess mommy couldn't get an appointment till now.  

Anyway, these are my stats:
Weight:  16 lbs 12 oz    -    38 %
Length:  27 inches        -    72%  
Head:  16.5 inches        -      8%

Daddy is a little nervous about my weight.  He thought I would be at least 17 lbs but the doctor wasn't concerned.  He said babies slow down weight wise and I'm really long so I'm perfectly fine even though the percentile is low.  My head is little too but both mommy and daddy have small heads so I fit in perfectly with my family.

I still have problems with Excema and the doctor is still concerned so he told mommy to make an appointment with the pediatric dermatologist.  Oh my...is this going to start the doctor cycle all over again??  Well, luckily I don't have to come back to my pedi for another 3 months.  But this visit wasn't over yet.  The nurse came back in.  I thought it was because she thought I was so cute she wanted to see me before we left.  Oh, not so.  That lady pricked me 4 times!!!  I got 4 shots.  OUCH!!!  I cried and cried.  Mommy hugged me tight after it was over.  I was really ready to leave now.
