Hard to believe it's been six months already. She's growing up so fast. I intend to get more pictures and possibly VIDEO! on the site soon, so you can see what she's looking and acting like. The main change is that her hair continues to grow in. It's not really long enough to do anything fun with, but it's at least brushable. More hair than me, at least. She's also sitting up, which you've seen some of in pictures, but she's much more stable now.
We just got home from her 6-month checkup. She's sleeping off the effects of her shots. Nicole measured 26 inches (sometimes referred to as 2'2"), which puts her in the 50th percentile and is 2 inches taller than at 4 months. She weighed a whopping 14 pounds, 2 ounces, which is only 20th percentile, but also a 2-pound gain from last time. And she's more than doubled her birth weight, which they say is the goal for 6 months. Her head circumference is 50th percentile, which really only means that she can fit into her Ravens hat for the rest of the season (which, by the looks of it, might be ending in December not February).

Correction, head circumference is 40th percentile. We don't want Nicole to get a swelled head :)
what would a baby with a head circumference in the 100th percentile look like? i mean, it's not the sort of thing you'd actually want your baby in the 100th percentile for, right? i'm right now imagining a 100% 100th percentile baby and it's not a pretty thought.
oh, and i started a blog too, so i have a new handle thingy. -devon
I don't know what it looks like, but I know I wouldn't want to give birth to it!
Hello far flung friends. Kim sent me the link to your blog, so I check in every once in a while. I am happy to see all the news, and pleased as always that you all can do math conversions so very well.
Memphis is fun, though hot, and school is fun, though intense. I'm already in year 2, and moving right along. I'll start rotations in May!
Miss you all,
JGB
