My growing boy

Keaton's 6 month check up went well yesterday. He is 17 lbs 9 oz, 26 inches long, and is right where he should be on motor skills and everything. He only grew about half an inch (although I think he's on a growth spurt right now)... it was a decent change from last time because he apparently grew 4 inches the previous visit! He did fine with his shots and only cried for a minute or two- when we left the exam room to go home, he realized he was in a different place and then noticed some girls playing in the waiting room so he was instantly distracted. I'm sure he wanted to make a good impression... he's such a little flirt!

The Hetrick family arrived in the afternoon (with Leslie's b/f Mitch) and we headed to IKEA last night. We got in the elevator with a cute Middle Eastern couple and their baby boy. I asked how old he was, and found out our boys were born on the same day! Later on we ran into them again, and Keaton and little Sid ended up seeing each other and having an adorable, smiley interaction. Keaton was so cute and seemed to talk to Sid and grinned from ear to ear at him.... so sad I didn't have my camera! Nothing cuter than two cute babies smiling at each other.

We're headed downtown today to the Museum of Science and Industry. It'll be Keaton's first museum so we'll see what he thinks... I have a feeling it'll be right up his alley. :)
