6 Months Old



Time has flown by. Every afternoon I get home he's grown just a little. He's eating pears, apples, sweet potatoes, carrots, cereal, broccoli, and the occasional cracker. He's working on using a sippy cup. He loves to drink out of big people cups, but that turns into a costume change.
He amazed us this weekend by playing peek a boo. He had a towel in his hands and put it over his head and then pulled it down and we yelled peek a boo! I thought he was a genius for being able to do this at such a young age, so I went and got out my Peds notes from Dr.Fors and realized that he is right on target. Oh well, we're still impressed!
We went to see Dr.Beth today for his 6 month check up and for her to assess his cold. He didn't have any ear infections and didn't need any medications (to Neall's disappointment).
He weighed 20 pounds and is 28 3/4 '' long.
Sol is very wiggly. He thinks that if we would just let him out of our lap he could walk across the room. He can sit up pretty well, the boppy is nice to have behind him. He's rolling over now and gets peeved when he ends up on his stomach.
He's sleeping with us most of the night. He sleeps in his bed until around midnight and then when he gets up to eat he ends up staying the whole night with us. It's just too easy when he's still eating off me to roll over and feed him instead of getting up over and over. Plus he's very cuddly and I enjoy seeing the first smile of the day.
