6 Month Checkup

Yesterday was Jack's 6 month doctor visit. All looks good no problems at all. He weighed in at 16 pounds 11 ounces, he only gained about a pound and 7 ounces since last time, but he grew an inch and is now at 25 inches long. Apparently when they get to this age and start moving a bunch they tend to grow toward their height curve, and since he is considered short (which I really have a hard time believing still) he probably wont gain to much weight. I have a really hard time believing the height percentile though, for heavens sake he is 6 month old and wearing 12 month pjs because he is so long, I think the percentile thing is a little flawed or just bogus, besides Dan and I arent exactly short, and I know he could have got the short gene somewhere else but its not very likely. Don't get me wrong I don't have a problem with it if he is short, I just don't believe it. Jack still has dry skin even though I drench him in eucerin everyday. Hopefully when winter decides to let up (which obviously isn't today) his skin will feel a little better. Ive been so blessed that Jack hasn't been sick at all this winter! I really hope to keep it that way, some might call me anal about this stuff but hey it seems to be working right?
