Adalynn's First Tooth!

Adalynn turned 6 months while Lauren was sick.  So not only did we have a sick 4 year old but we had a teething infant.  Wow!  Nov. 19th she woke up with her first tooth breaking through.  This pic is during Thanksgiving just a few days later.  And #2 broke through just a couple nights ago after taking a week!  Dr. Jiang said at her 6 month appointment that she probably has 3 more that will come in within the next month.  So 1 down....2 to go.  Lauren didn't get her first tooth until 8 months, so she's a little early!

We were 11 days late for her 6 month check but she was 27" tall (85th percentile) and almost 19 pounds (91st percentile).  Dr. Jiang also said that her head is off the charts so they have to say 99th percentile.  She could tell I looked a little concerned and said in her oriental accent "Big head equals big brain. She's smart!" Phew! And for those curious, she's about 1.5" taller and 1.5 pounds heavier than Lauren at 6 months.

 Since turning 6 months and being off antibiotics for an ear infection/bronchitis (thanks to Lauren and Preschool we all shared it) we were given the go ahead for food.  We tried bananas first.  It didn't go very well.  I have a video to add later that is proof!

 Post bananas....at least she was happy!  Rice cereal was an epic fail, oatmeal hasn't been much better.  Carrots are a NO!  Sweet peas and yams are the top choices at this point. This is only after week 1, we have to do it slowly to make sure she doesn't have an allergic reaction to anything.

 And here's a super cute picture of Adalynn and Dada watching the Beavs.
