The picture is of the containers full off baby food about to go into the freezer. The assortment includes pear, apple and pear, mango, apple and pear, sweet potato mash and Mackerel with assorted veg (leek, squash, courgette, aubergine, sweet potato and parsnip if my memory serves). This is the most I think I've frozen in one go, which deserves the picture :)
That was yesterday's shenanigans, today was Leon's 8 month check. I mentioned the possible lazy eye and the doctor said there was a very slight difference in the eyes so that's been referred to a specialist. The rest was all good, he was very well behaved. She couldn't work out why the way he pulls his whatsits about didn't hurt either but didn't seem worried.
Weight, he's now up from 50th centile to about 70th (per)centile
Height at the 6 week check, he was on the 75th centile, now he's on the 98th centile which puts him well over 6 foot if predictions work.
Head circumference he's just under the 25th centile, which is where it was at the 6 week check so it's growing normally. So not got a big head then :)
Oh and for any of you wondering what this centile stuff is, it's a graph with 50 being in the middle/average the 0 to 100th centile is all within acceptable norms and so long as the measurements sit on the graph within these numbers, all is well. Leon was just under the 50th centile for weight at birth, which at a very average 7lb 13oz, you would expect to be pretty much average. So yes, 98th centile for height puts him right up at the top of the graph, but still within acceptable norms.
