Today we woke up bright and early to head to Gibson's 6 month check-up. Mother was planning on going with me so around lunch, I headed to Bobo/Pappy's house to pick up mother. She called around 1:15 saying that she was at Brookwood mall and that she would just meet me there. I told her not to worry with it. So, here we go for our adventure!
The kids were fantastic. Per our instructions, I gave Gibson .8 of Tylenol before the visit. While I was in the waiting room, Matt called and said that he was leaving St. Vincent's. I convinced him to come to the doctor's office with me. Luckily, he showed up before Gibson even had to go back to a room. The first thing that they always make us do is take off the kids clothes down to a diaper. They then take him back to get a weight measurement. He weighed in at 16 pounds and 13 ounces and was 28.25 inches long (90th-95th). His head measured about 17 inches. Doctor Huie came in and said the same thing everyone says..."look at those beautiful blue eyes and look at those long eyelashes". He then proceeded to say that he was a healthy baby boy and to begin feeding him 2-3 times a day. But, he would need to be eating at least 3 meals by the time he is 9 months old.
Matt kept LeLe in the waiting area while we saw Dr. Huie. Gibson received 4 shots while we were there. Dr. Huie said that his ears were clear.
