6 Months Old today

• Today I went to the doctor. I now weigh 17 lbs, 4 oz, and am over 26" long. As Mom says, "I'm Huuugggge!"

I did not get my shots today because the doctor heard wheezing in my chest. I've always kinda had allergies, like Mom and Dad, and Dad had asthma as a kid. So, looks like I'll be following in his footsteps. Nothing major, I just have to take some medicine and breathe in this funny machine for about a week.

• I can almost always keep sitting up by myself, and before you know it I'll be crawling everywhere.

• I had peas this week for the first time; pretty good stuff! But, today is my birthday - where's the cake? Aw, come on, Mom!
