Eddie stats

A week before his 2-month check-up, we lost our health insurance and had to cancel Eddie's appointment. Little did I know how long it would take to get covered...anyway, we went back to the doctor at 6 months knowing our little guy isn't so little. Eddie is 29 inches long, 19 lbs and 12 ounces, and has a head circumference of 18.3 inches.

Interestingly, he is the same weight to the ounce as DJ was at the same age! So he might be a couple of years behind, but Eddie is on track.

He's still about the sweetest baby I've ever met, though I discovered that he makes a terrible patient when he had a cold last week, waking up crying every half hour and not going back to sleep without pacing and singing. He can sit up well, will bounce in the Jumparoo for a long time, and is quiet and observant. He LOVES his big brother and sisters and laughs primarily for them. Eddie has tried some foods, and seems to like peas the best! He loves music, and will calm down and go to sleep whenever Kevin sings to him. We're excited for his first Christmas--he's definitely been the highlight of our year!
