6 Months

{February 28th}

Another month has flown by and our little man is 6 months!!!

Stats:
Weight: 15 lb 4 oz (10%)
Height: 26 inches (25%)
Head Circumference: 44.5 cm (75%)


In the last month we've been practicing our back bends...
He loves to arch his back and look behind him.  It's also a sign that he is so close to rolling over from his back to his tummy but we still haven't seen it. 
He did it ONCE at the babysitters a month ago but that's been it.
He also won't roll over from his tummy to back anymore, either.  When he is over tummy time he just lays his head down and whines.

He still goes crazy in the jumperoo.

He is doing great eating solids.  Well, except for the thumb sucking thing.

He is SO happy when we get him up in the morning.  He'll still just lay in there and make little coos and play with his feet until you come and get him.  When he first sees us we get the biggest cheeser smiles and a few double leg kicks.

He actually gives us the cheeser smiles quite often.  Its like he gets so excited he can't stand it.

He curls his toes when he is sitting in the Bumbo seat.  He's usually in there to eat, but they stay curled the whole time.

He has started to show interest in the kitty cats and will reach for them whenever they get close.  They tolerate it until the first fistfull of fur comes out in his little fingers.

I can't believe a whole half year has gone by.
This first 6 months with our baby boy has been the most challenging and the most rewarding of our lives thus far.
It's hard to imagine our life without our little nug.
Happy half birthday, buddy!
Love you so much!

Wow - his eyes are identical to yours!! I can't believe it's been 6 months already, and I can't believe how freaking cute he is - seriously. :)
