Daddy’s summary of Abi’s 6 month physical

Back from the 6 mo physical.  Everything looks good.  Weight is 14.4 lbs and height is 25.5 inches.  Both remain just below average, but the doc is happy with her growth.  New round of shots, so stinky is probably going to be cranky tonight.

I got my seasonal flu shot yesterday, so I’m suffering through a bad set of flu-like symptoms today.  I guess I’m in the large minority that have a reaction to the shot.  Stinky will get her flu shot early next week.

Abi is becoming mobile

She is crawling (dragging herself) forwards & backwards, and moving a greater distance each day.  Today, she got stuck under a big chair when she crawled backwards.  She sometimes gets frustrated when she wants to move toward an object, but unwittingly moves backwards.  Mommy & Daddy are very scared.

Here are some pictures of Abi from class last Thursday.

Grandpa Michael visited Abi

Grandpa Michael came up to walk with Abi in the race (see below).  Here they are having breakfast before the race.

After walk / running with Mommy, Daddy & Grandpa Michael

We walked / ran 2.7 miles in the Arlington Town Day race.  Abi was pooped.
