Beckett turned the big 0.5 yesterday and we had his 6 month well visit today with his doctor. Things are looking good!
He weighs 19 pounds 10 ounces (90th%) and is 27.5 inches long (also 90th%). Despite being big and tall, he is not fat - as he is only at the 50th% for height/weight ratio.
My major concern going in to this appointment was that he STILL is not rolling over and Kendall had done so at 4 months and started sitting up at 6 months. It is hard, as a mom of two, to not compare my two kids. Though I know Beckett will get to his major milestones when he is ready, I just can't help but to compare his lack of it to Kendall's success. Does that make sense?! I do feel like I am less worried with what his friends are accomplishing than I was the first time around...I don't worry about 'competing', I guess. which is healthier for everyone in every way imaginable!!! Every single mom out there, I'm sure, feels the same way!!!
I'm excited to see the changes in Beckett over the next 6 months. I'm excited to get to know the boy he becomes over the next 180 days and beyond. He's been a true joy for the last 6 months and every single day I am thankful I have such a healthy and happy little boy. I never thought I would enjoy having a boy as much as I have!
Is he really that big? Mine just had their year check and Case was 19 even and Cole was 19 pounds 7 ounces! All the boys I know are bigger than Case and Cole, even the younger ones!
ReplyDeleteYay Beckett! He might not be as far along as his big sis when it comes to rolling over and sitting up, but at least there is no wedge involved this time around!! :) Love you! XOXO
