6 Month Checkup


Britt had his 6 month old check up at the end of last week (I know, I'm behind again on posting!), and he's doing great. He's 17lbs 2oz and 25 1/2 inches long. That officially makes the gap between weight (50th percentile) and height (20th percentile) even larger. I guess those Marshall genes are going to kick in later, but for right now he's dealing with the Burger curse! He finished up the last dose of the major vaccines, and they made him very grumpy for a day or two, but he was back to normal fairly quickly.

The ped said it's excellent that he's scooting and sitting very independently. In fact, the scoot looks very similar to a combat crawl (Uncle Keith would be proud!) with a breaststroke kick (Aunt Ash would be proud!), and he can get himself across our big front room very quickly, especially when Macey is involved in the chase. As of today he can get back into a sitting position from his hands and knees. I predict he'll be full-on crawling next week and playing golf by next month.

Above is a pic from Atlanta. He was wedding dress shopping (like a champ!) but also supporting his Vols and making many girlfriends.
