6 month check-up

On Aug. 25, just before we left for England Owen had his 6 month check-up (a little early). His stats were:
Weight: 15lbs 14 oz (30th percentile)
Height: 27" (80th percentile)
Head Circ.: 43cm

Dr. Morse said he should now start eating solid foods, such as pureed avocado/beans/peas and so on and that he should be consuming 4-6 oz of breast milk (or formula) a feeding, for a total of 24 oz a day.

As for his developmental milestones, he sat up un-aided for the first time right there in the doctor's office, but he still hasn't rolled-over from back to front. Dr Morse said she was confident he would do before we returned from our trip.

Anyway, now we were ready to go to England!!
