Garrett had his sixth month checkup today and has caught up to his age range big time. He was in the 50th percentile for weight and the 78th percentile for height (on the LONG side). About a month ago I was really starting to worry about his core. The midsection of his body seemed much weaker than it should be. Then he started eating sweet potatoes like a madman about a month ago and WALAA, I noticed his midsection started strengthening up. Now he can sit up with assistance. Before he had such weak muscle tone in his middle he couldn’t sit straight up. On the sweet potato note……..that is all he will eat………sweet potatoes. He loves them and hates everything else, including, but not limited to, EVERYTHING ELSE!
Our day goes: Bottle—Sweet Potatoes—Bottle—Sweet Potatoes—Bottle—Sweet Potatoes—Bottle—Bed.
Grant is doing well with his speech. He still has speech issues, but is much more comfortable with trying to speak. He cracks me up on a daily basis. Never a dull moment.
