6 Month Check-Up


So Kelty had her 6-month check-up finally today after rescheduling a couple of times. Dr. Odell says she is very healthy. 
Here's her official stats:
Weight   18 lbs
Height    27.5 inches
She is 98% of the ideal for what she should weigh for her height. Dr. Odell said she is a little skinny. Which makes sense because when I was little my Grandpa Russell referred to me as "Chicken Legs". I was a bean pole as some would say.
Kelty is 80% of the average for weight and her age. She is 89% in height. Most babies her age weigh about 16 lbs.
I am so glad that she is healthy, besides her minor cold, not overweight, and tall. I think we have a little athlete. Daddy says she's his football player! haha

Kelty discovers FOOD










So Kelty isn't quite sure about eating her baby food. As I am sure most babies with the exception of Bryken (that kid loves food) tend to feel similar. 


However, whenever Matt & I have something she wants it. Here's what I caught Matt & Kelty in the act of last Friday.  I am not sure she should have big people food yet, but I just laughed and took pictures.


She was so funny, she would look at Daddy to see how he would eat the string cheese and then she would copy him. 






We have discovered that Kelty likes:

  1.  String Cheese obviously
  2.  Focaccia Bread (like garlic bread sticks)
  3.  Vanilla Cookies
  4.  Root bear, she's not real crazy about Sprite
  5.  her baby carrots
and she doesn't seem to be crazy about
  1.  Gogurt
  2.  Applesauce
  3.  pears
  4.  and her baby cheerio things.



And she loves steeling your cup so you have to drink really fast, but she is really good about drinking if you only leave a drop in the cup for her.
