A quick note - today we had our 6 month well baby check up. Momoka is doing great and the Pediatrician is happy with her progress. Here's her measurements:
weight - 8.85 kg (99%)
height - 68.5 cm (59%)
head - 44 cm (86%)
The gains in her height and head circumference are, on a percentage basis, larger than her weight gain, which is good because she's almost off the weight chart. Our Doc told us never fear, Momoka was doing great and she did not feel she was too heavy. I am sure once she gets those chubby little legs in gear the butter in her butterball will melt right off. She is right on track for milestones although she has zero interest in rolling over and hates being on her tummy. The Doc told us today some babies are like that and will roll over when they get good and ready. Off tomorrow to that muggy version of hades known as Southeast Texas.
Hey everybody I'm six months old and I'm doing great!
Awww, such a big girl - I'm going to have to find the converter to figure out how big she is :) So sweet! I'm glad that she's a Daddy's girl, and SO glad that I have a Mommy's girl (for now), I KNOW that will change!!!

Jennifer, there is a CDC growth chart on the internet. My wife has one that's from the Japanese CDC equivalent. Funny, the American one has her weight at the 99th percentile but on the Japanese growth chart her weight is at the 95th percentile. Seems opposite. She was great on the plane to Texas and we're hoping, in spite of a tooth breaking through, she'll enjoy the ride back to DC as well.
