27.5 inches, 17 pounds

Elizabeth turned 6 months last Sunday, so I took her for her checkup
yesterday. She’s doing great and is in the 75th percentile for length.
I can’t believe she grew an inch and a half since her 4 month checkup.
No wonder her clothes are so tight. All her onesies are ballet-necks
(low scoop neck) on her because they’re pulled so tightly. I’m starting
to get smart and buy clothes that are a few sizes too big – not so she
looks like a baggy-pants rapper, but who cares if you have to roll up
the sleeves?

I was getting sad over the weekend as I disassembeled her cradle and
boxed up a bunch of outgrown clothes. She was that tiny only a few
weeks ago! Time goes by so fast, but it’s also hard to remember what we
did without her.
