Ken's Birthday and a 6 month check up

we all had a great time at kens' 40th birthday oyster extravaganza as you can see. the weather was perfect for raw and bbq'ed along with some beautiful fish and delicious tres leche cake.

she had her 6 month check up last friday. the nurse put her in the 90th %. when the doc came in she said 'did i miss her 6 month check up?' 'no,' i repllied - 'this IS her 6 month check up, why?'
the nurse had written on the chart that she was 9 months old since that's what she appeared to be to her. when we adjusted for 6 months she was way off the charts at 21 lbs 8 oz and over 27 inches long. she is well proportioned, ahead of her age for sitting up, grabbing things and very alert. she's a bit behind in rolling over, but as the doc said - there's just a lot of her to roll over. she got the usual shots plus a flu shot and was pretty wiped out that night.

she's on to green beans this week and liking them a lot more than the sweet potatoes. she's digging her soccer ball and hates turtling since she still can't roll over too well.

hannah got back on schedule after sort of a rough week at daycare over the weekend, only to nap not so great on monday. today (tuesday) however she slept for 2.5 hours and straight through a fire drill. she's generally sleeping from 7:30 - 6:30 am with the occasional 4 am wake up. considering i've talked to parents of many 1 year olds who's darlings wake up every 2 hours i feel pretty good.
