Yes. You are in the "perfect" scenario.
Average baby is 7.5 Lbs. In the last month, babies are supposed to gain 1/2 Lb per week. You have 2 weeks left, so that's another 1 Lb to add to the 6.5 Lbs. So that would be the "ideal" 7.5 Lbs.

That means that 50% of babies weigh more than yours and 50% weigh less making your's 100% average in weight!! I'd say that's normal!
