Miss Hadassah Kay at 6 Months

Hadassah had her 6 month well check up.  The doctor said she looked good. She weighed 14 lbs 8 oz (19th percentile), her head circumference was 43 cm (63rd percentile), but there was a discrepancy in her length. The nurse measured her at 28.3" (99th percentile). The doctor didn't like the wide range between her height & weight, so he remeasured her. He came up with 27.25" (90th percentile) and felt more comfortable with that. 

She's not a very good smiler, yet. We're working on it. A lot of her serious expressions remind me of Moses. The ears, though, are just like Ezra's :-)


 Hadassah loves to gnaw & chew on just about anything. Her fourth tooth is just breaking through right now. She is a drooly  mess most of the time!


We just started giving her cereal. She's not too interested yet. She enjoys chewing on the spoons & her sippy cup a lot more than the actual eating. 


Hadassah is on the move now as well. She will "army" crawl & scoot on her belly pretty quickly, especially if she sees something she wants. After 6 months of being pestered by her brothers, the tables have turned. Yesterday Ezra was hollering & yelling around because Hadassah wanted his milk. Every time he tried to move it, she would crawl right over and grab it. Things are about to get very interesting around here :-)
