Tall Dark and Handsome


He's been six months old for a couple of weeks, but we just went to visit the doc today for his 6 month check up.  Chase weighs 16 lbs and is 27.5 inches long!  He is in the 15th percentile for his weight and the 75th percentile for his height!  He is a long skinny kid.  He is doing just great, but we finally figured out that the scales on his legs and scalp are from severe eczema. Poor little guy!  At least now we know what to do to treat it. The doc also pointed out that he has two little white nubs just waiting to break through his lower gums. He's excellent at rolling from his tummy to his back, and sits up for 8-10 minutes without support.  Pretty soon he will be crawling and driving us nuts!

He is so darling! Have a fun Christmas with him this year and remember the best gift he'll get is the box and wrapping paper!
