6-month checkup and a wedding!

We had Andrew's 6-month checkup today, two weeks late, as usual. He'll be 6 1/2 months old on Wednesday, but this was when it was scheduled.

Andrew was, thank heaven, feeling better today than he was a week ago. He was happy and smiling at the nurses like the merciless flirt he is. Haha. The doctor said everything looked great, that he was a happy, healthy baby. Hurray!

They weighed him - 22 lbs 3 oz (97th percentile), measured his height - 28.3 inches (92nd percentile), and measured his head - 18.3 inches (96th percentile). So pretty much Andrew is a giant, but a well-proportioned giant.

They also gave him vaccinations, which are never fun, but he reacted pretty well and has been pretty chipper since. I am so blessed to have such a "mellow" baby, as all of Jason's siblings were saying this last weekend.

Jason's brother Nathan got married last Friday, and we were able to make it to Seattle for it! The trips there and back weren't that bad, and the time there was so fun. I loved it. It had been since our wedding almost 2 years ago that we had seen them all together, and we were with them all for the weekend. The sealing was sweet, the receptions were great, and the time together with everyone was the best. Yay for family!

I'll post pictures from the wedding later.
