Gage had his six month well-checkup yesterday (it was postponed, because he had an ear infection last time, so they wouldn't give him his immunizations). Anyway, he is doing very well-right where he should be-maybe a tad on the "big" side. He is in the 70th percentile for weight and 90th for height-go figure! I think he is going to be a tall one, an attribute for which his father will be extremely grateful!
He is sitting up on his own, eating solid foods, laughing, and smiling constantly. His vision and hearing seem to be terrific too!
I am so thankful for such a happy, healthy little blessing. It takes all of two seconds to snap a picture like this. He is amazing!
Okay..... I'm gonna do a little survey here. Let me preface by saying that I LOVE my baby boy's happy face! However, I prefer picture #1. I have this great camera (thanks to my employers), and I have the option of using my flash. I prefer not to. I think that the picture looks more natural without the flash and the colors are better. However, the camera does not allow ANY movement when not using the flash, and when Gage smiles, he giggles and moves A LOT...are you keeping up with me here? :) So, it is either a smiley picture with flash or somber (still) picture without flash. What do you think?!?!?! And does anyone out there have any photography advise (except to buy a more expensive camera!)?!?!
