6 month doctor visit, 12/3

The babies went into the doctor's office yesterday for their 6 month checkup and immunizations.  They got 3 shots and an oral vaccine and felt really bad the rest of the day and night, but they are feeling better now.

Ben weighed 16 lbs 7 oz, was 25.5" tall and had a 43.7 cm head circumference.  Evie was 15 lbs 12 oz, 25.25" tall and had a 42.4 cm head circumference.  They are in higher percentiles in all of those measurements now, which means they are "catching up" with other 6 month babies.  They are now right around the 50% percentile for 5 month babies which is a better measure because they were a month early.

They can start eating little rice puff things and drinking water from cups now.
