6 mo stats

Yesterday was our 6 mo check up. Merrick is doing good. Growing like a weed!!!!! He is 21lbs 6.5 oz (95%tile), 29 1/4 inches (off the charts) and his head is 43.8cm (93%tile). He is growing so fast. We are starting #2 foods now, he (we) is brushing his 2 toothers! and he is riding in the front of the shopping cart like a big boy!!!! Over the past few months Merrick has a spot on each cheek that gets very "chapped and red". Yesterday Dr. Wickenkamp diagnosed him with eczema. It is a very mild case but have to be careful with lotions and how often he is bathed since this tends to cause flare ups. Again it is a very mild case and can be easily managed with some good lotions and a lil hydrocortosone cream and we are good! Again our computer is still in the "shop" but I cant wait to get it back. I have some darling pictures to share! Have a wonderful Tuesday...
