Eli's "6 month" appointment! ;)

Well, since we moved here over the time that Eli was turning 6 months and then went right back for vacation, we were unable to get Eli scheduled for his 6 month shots till today! There is a ridiculous wait to get an appointment around here, it stinks! Anyways, he'll be 8 months on the 11th, so I think it is kind of funny that we are so behind on it! Anyhow, he did really well, and came in at 22 lbs 12 ozs and 28 inches long with an 18 in head. :) He is only like 75th on his length, but he is like 95th and 97th on weight and his big fat noggin. He did really well with the 3 shots and I really like the pediatrician here... He is a lot different from the down home type pedi that I had in NC, but he still seems really helpful.

Oh, also I finally got around to calling WIC to see if we qualify. I didn't realize they didn't factor in what we get for housing, so we are well under the amount that they call "poor" enough, so I go the 12th to talk to the WIC counselor... I so wish I would have done this a lot sooner, but oh well, at least this should help with the formula and juice. They do a different brand here, which kind of stinks, but oh well, I'm sure he'll do fine on it.

Anyways, that's what's going on around here. :) Hope everyone is doing well! ;)

Here are a couple pics to keep you sane... We were messing around in Walmart and had a little fun at Eli's expense... Hope you enjoy! As you can see, he didn't quite know what to think of it!

Oh my gosh! My grandson looks so grown up already, but adorably cute. The helmet looks great on him. I see sports in his future for sure. Glad to hear his checkup went so well. Thanks for the pics and update.

Love to everyone!
