6 month visit

Cameron went to the doctor for his 6 month check up. He's been feeling a bit under the weather with some sinus congestion but it wasn't severe. The sinus trouble wasn't enough to slow his appetite. He's still on the charts weighing in at 19 lbs 15 oz and 27 inches. It may be the 90th percentile, but he's still listed.

Updates:
No teeth...yet. I'm concerned about dehydration on account of excessive drooling, but that doesn't seem to be a legitimate opic in the baby books.

Sleeping...not so much. Here's where unanswered prayers are for the best. I prayed and prayed that my little butterball would learn to roll over. We practiced and practiced, and he just wouldn't. Not couldn't...wouldn't. Then the Lord said, "He will roll." The continuation of that is, "while he is sleeping and this will piss him off." Every night he tries to roll to his side and the nearly 20 pounds takes him all the way over to his belly. Well he screams and screams until I get up and turn him back on his side. This happens about 5 times a night.

Parents of the year...disqualified. We inclined his crib mattress at the suggestion of our pediatrician. Cameron doesn't roll or at least he didn't until...see above. The very first night we inclined him, I hear Cameron screaming an hour after putting him to bed. I look into his crib and my poor child has rolled all the way down his mattress into the crack in between the mattress and the crib bumper. Ooops.
