Jason and I took Lily in on Thursday for her 6 month check-up. All is good. Lily weighs 17lbs 13 ounces...so not quite double her birth weight but eating and growing fine. She is 27 1/4 inches long (95th percentile). I asked about how much I should be feeding her baby foods and when I should move her up to level 2 foods. I have been giving her oatmeal in the mornings, a fruit at lunchtime, and a vegetable around dinner time and keeping her bottle feedings the same. Dr. Russell said this was fine and that I could actually start giving her level 2 foods now. Lily LOVES her food! If it is something she really likes, such as sweet potatoes, she keeps her mouth open waiting for us to give her the next bite. Once again, Lily did great with her shots...just a few tears initially but then she had quickly forgotten them. On Friday she had ran a temperature of 100.5 most of the day. I gave her 2 doses of Tylenol and she broke her fever each time, but then it would creep right back up. She didn't act any differently and she continued to eat well. I'm sure it was a delayed reaction from her shots. A few weeks ago when I was getting her dressed one day I noticed a hard pea sized lump under her left nipple. I asked Dr. Russell about this and she said it was normal breast tissue and nothing to worry about. We are all enjoying the nice weather and can't wait to get outside even more. Lily and I are being baptized together this Sunday. Jason's parents are coming into town today. I will update with some pictures again on Sunday. We hope this finds everyone doing well! Thanks for checking in!
