OK, so I know Riley is almost 7 months old (only 7 days away), but we just took her for her 6 month checkup on Friday. Her original 6 month appointment turned into visits for RSV and Bronchiolitis. So, we took her back for her shots. Riley weighed 15 lbs 7 oz. That's a whole pound more than when she was sick. She was measured at 24 inches, but that is 1/2 inch less than the last two visits...so I'm saying that she is still 24 1/2 inches. She was healthy and passed all of her developmental tests with flying colors. The doctor gave us the go ahead to try teething buiscuts and crackers. We upped her solid meals to 3 times a day. Dr. Fred said that we can try meats (pureed, of course) in a couple weeks if she handles all of her feedings as well as she is now. That will be interesting. I've never pureed meat!
We took advantage of the 70 degree weather last week and took Riley on a walk to the park. We have a really nice park about three or four blocks from our house. It was the first time that Riley had been on a walk in her big stroller without the carseat attached. She loved it! At the park, she swung in the baby swing. She has so much fun watching the other kids playing and loved swinging. I can't wait for spring so that we can go on walks to the park more often! I forgot to take my camera to the park so I don't have any pictures of that to share. I'll be sure to take it the next time we go.
