Well, today Jacob had his 6 month check up (even though he is a little over 7 months now). The doctor said he needs to eat more solid foods because his weight is only in the 25% at 17.5 pounds. His height was the 90% at 27 1/2 inches. His head was 90% as well, at 45 1/2 inches! Big melon!! Jacob is doing great overall! Growing too quickly! He has the rolling over thing down pat! He can now do it front to back as well as back to front. He loves to roll!! He is trying so very very hard to crawl but he doesn't quite grasp the concept...yet...but I'm sure he will soon. And he is drooling now more than ever. I just wish those pesky teeth would just pop through for him! It seems so painful :( He got three shots as well today :( I hate that! The nurses have you hold the top part of you child down, as if it isn't hard enough to watch your baby go through that, while they stab that sharp pointy needle in the fatty tissue of their leg! It always makes me tear up hearing them screaming and you having to keep holding them down. I think it breaks any parents heart.
Brandon is great as well. He is just a ball FULL of energy! Somedays I wish I had just 1/2 his energy...boy I would get things done fast :) He just learned where his toes are, so now he pretty much knows the whole body!! YAY!! He is a very smart boy! He will now also tell you that he is "2"! While he does that he holds up both hands (we haven't quite learned how to hold just 2 fingers up). Time flies I remember when he was Jacob's age just trying to crawl away and now he can RUN!! It's amazing how time flies!
