First of all, the baby-led solids are going really well! A few days ago Kynlee tried avocado for the first time! If you follow me on Twitter then you may have already seen the pictures and video. If not, you can see it HERE on the BLW blog. That's where I'll be blogging Kynlee's food adventures!
On Thursday I had a doctor's appointment and so did Kynlee. Kynlee's was for her 6 month well check and shots (3 weeks late due to them rescheduling twice). Both appointments took forever, but Kynlee's lasted 2 HOURS.
Her appointment time was for 2:20pm. They called us back about ten minutes later and did her weight/measurements. We were seeing a new (to us) NP that we had never seen before (again due to the rescheduling). She ended up being SUPER nice. I'm guessing she was running behind that day because we waited an hour and a half after they did K's measurements for her to come do the well check. And then we had to wait for the shots after that. We've always been in and out of the peds office in around 30 minutes. So yesterday's appointment made for a LONG visit!
At 6 months & 3wks, Kynlee weighs in at 15 lbs., 6 ounces and is 25.75 inches long. She is still a small (but growing!) baby.
She's had a cough/runny nose/watery & matted eyes for about a week now (one of her eyes has constantly been matted like that since she was born - & I've been having to massage her tear duct - but it's gotten worse this week). They are trying her on some antibiotic drops for her eyes and Claritin for her allergies (which is what they think is causing all of that).
This weekend we have plans to RELAX. We may be sanding/painting a chest-of-drawers to finally put in Kynlee's room so that I can better organize her clothes. I also need to get some storage containers for her clothes that she's already grown out of. Right now they're in a cardboard box & that's not going to cut it. Plus, there's some stuff that hasn't even been packed up yet that needs to be.
Oh and lucky me: Just before we left K's appointment on Thursday my throat started to get sore. Just a little. But by yesterday morning it was throbbing! It especially hurts to swallow but really just hurts in general. Bleh. Be sure to leave any sore-throat remedies you have in the comments below. :)
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
With Love,
