6 month check-up (at 7 months)

TODAY BRODY HAD HIS SIX MONTH CHECKUP. HE WEIGHS 17.8 LBS AND IS 26 1/2 INCHES LONG. THAT IS MIGHTY IMPRESSIVE GOING FROM 18 INCHES AND 3 LBS 15 OUNCES TO WHAT HE IS CURRENTLY. ALTHOUGH HE IS DEVELOPMENTALLY ALMOST TWO MONTHS BEHIND OTHERS HIS AGE, SHE SAID HE IS RIGHT WHERE HE SHOULD BE FOR A 7 MONTH OLD! KIDS SEEM TO HIT MILESTONES AT THEIR OWN PACE. HE IS ROLLING OVER PRETTY WELL FROM HIS BACK TO HIS STOMACH, BUT IS NOT GETTING BELLY TO BACK VERY WELL. IF LEFT IN A ROOM BY HIMSELF, HE YELLS SO SOMEONE WILL HEAR HIM, THEN HE LAUGHS WHEN YOU COME IN THE ROOM. HE IS BECOMING QUITE THE HAM, AS HE IS NO LONGER SITTING QUIETLEY IN CHURCH OR THE DOCTORS OFFICE. HE IS STARTING TO MAKE WAILING NOISES, JUMP UP AND DOWN MORE, AND IS A WIGGLE WORM. HIS LITTLE SMILE IS ADORABLE AND HE IS BEGINNING TO LAUGH WHEN PEOPLE SAY HI TO HIM. HE IS NO LONGER SLEEPING IN HIS BEDSIDE SLEEPER, BUT HAS GRADUATED TO HIS PLAYPEN, WHICH I HAVE NEXT TO MY BED. I DONT WANT HIM SLEEPING IN HIS OWN ROOM YET, BUT HIM BEING IN OUR ROOM REALLY ISNT A BIG DEAL BECAUSE HE IS SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT. AS LONG AS HE ISNT IN OUR BED IT WILL BE OKAY.
