We took Pearce to the doctor this morning for his 6 month check-up. The nurse asked me all kinds of questions about if Pearce is doing this and that....like babbling, grabbing, putting weight on his legs, sitting up, napping. I was able to answer YES to all of the questions! Dr. Sperling came in and talked to us about starting solids and answered any other questions we had. She is sooo nice! She's young...probably right around my age. She just talked and talked to Pearce and he cooed right back at her...while sucking his thumb! Then she picked him up and talked a little more to him and then did her exam. She commented about what a happy baby he is. That made me so proud! She said he was perfect and of course, Chris and I agreed :) Then it was time for his set of shots :( The nurse gave them to him and he cried pretty hard, but as soon as I picked him up, he stopped. He just sniffed for a little while. Poor little guy! He was brave though. Chris went to work and we headed home. Pearce fell asleep after that and took a good nap. I am so incredibly thankful for a healthy, happy baby!!
