Update Xpost from pregnancy board
Ok, so I've been lazy and not posted. Sydnie had her 6 month check up (a week..2 weeks?? ago) and is doing well. We didn't get to see her doctor because she hadn't made it in yet, so her husband (they have a practice together) filled in for her. I do not like him, his bedside manner sucks...but what could I do. As usual (for him) he told me she's not gaining enough weight and not growing well. He did this to me with my youngest son which made me start giving him formula instead of nursing him. I learned my lesson for this time. I blew him off in that regard because she weighed in at 14 lbs. 9 oz and was 24.5 inches long. Apparently a gain of 2 lbs and growing 0.5 inches in 6 weeks isn't enough. Whatever. Anyway, her head is finally growing quicker and she's doing great developmentally. We got the all clear to start cereal, which she LOVES by the way, and then the next week start veggies, then fruits. I'm not ready for this...LOL!! So, all is well with her. I can't believe how much she's grown already and I keep thinking in just another 6 months, she'll be close to walking and talking if she doesn't do it before then. The time really IS short, isn't it??
And now, some pictures for you to enjoy.

Hey, Shawn!!! & Lil... Shawn... ummmm Sydnie!!! HeHeHe
She's too cute!! So happy to hear the good news about how well she's doing. It's really hard getting advice from more than one doctor, especially when you like one more than the other. So I gather that you are going to continue nursing and add on foods over time.
Sydnie LOVES cereal IS a big step.. so where are the messy, eating pics???? Any teething???
Enjoy every minute and give her some snuggles for me!!
XOXOXO
