6 month appointment

Natalie had her 6 month appointment yesterday with Dr. Parkerson. She now weighs 16 lb. 8.5 oz. (60th percentile) and is 25.5" long (40th percentile). Her noggin is in the 90th percentile!! Must be to hold all her smarts :). Dr. Parkerson said she's doing great and has no concerns. Natalie did end up getting a bit of a fever today from the shots she got yesterday but it's dropped again and she's doing better.

We also decided to cut remaining "mohawk" dark hair that she still had from birth on down the center of her head. It's amazing how much her blond hair shines through now after cutting her "mohawk" shorter which got rid of a lot of the dark brown hair she had at birth. Plus, it's not hanging in her eyes anymore. I had been holding out cutting it because it was her baby hair -- I didn't want it to be gone yet but I guess it was time. These photos were taken after trimming her bangs.
