Dominique had her 6 month check-up. She's gained about 2 lbs since her last check-up in Nov to bring her up to: 15.6 lbs and 27 inches. As a comparison to others her age, she is in the 90th percentile for height and a little under the 50th for weight. In other words, she is comparatively tall and skinny. Well who would have guessed? ha, ha. Ivan did the exact same thing. Both were born chunky, but they slimmed down as they shot up in height. She got 3 huge needles worth of shots, I think 7 different "ingredients". She was a little fussy this evening so we gave her some infant tylenol, but other than that she and Ivan have both done great with shots and with their health. We are so thankful for that.
In the last week or so, Dominique has learned to clap. This is a fun age because she can sit up all on her own and play with things. She will entertain herself, but likes to have someone nearby.
Ivan is so pumped about Nana's visit. If we are about to eat, he wants to know if Nana eats too. Nana sleep? Nana coming! (wild cheering). He was saying Nana coming next week, now it's Nana coming two days (actually tomorow or the next, but it's hard to start new phrases).
What is also interesting is that he's also saying grandpa Ray and grandma Sue lots and those are the grands we didn't get to see this Christmas. I guess he's keeping careful tabs in his mind of all these relatives.

Wow she is long!! I can't say long and skinny, Cayla is only 15 lbs 13 oz and she is nearly 10 months old. She is 26 in. long. So ya'll have us beat in the long, but not the skinny--lol.
She and Ivan are both so precious. My how you have been blessed.

Well, the whole ince and pound thing gives me a hard time, so I have no clue how tall or heavy she really is. But if you say that she is skinny I believe you (you are the mom). I guess she got the hight from you. *g* Lets hope she will keep it up.
She looks so precious. I am glad the shots have been easy. Jac wasn't too bad either. She is growing quite tall. I don't remember what Jac is at I just know now she is 28lbs. I have no clue as to her height. She is almost up to my hips. The learning is always fun! When is Ivan going to learn to say Auntie Lin? ha-ha!
Ivan just 1 more day! Yes Ivan, Nana eats and sleeps and Talk! Love you.
