Me at 6 Months

6 months

Some of the fun things Baby C learned/loved/experienced/and started doing between his 6th-7th month! (Dec 18th-Jan 17th)

- Turned 6 months on Dec 18th--we sang you "Happy Half-Brithday"

-Trying Lots and lots of different foods—still hates green food

-Introduced to sippy cup

-Sitting up well

-At the beginning of 6 months you were still on Antibiotics for your ear infection and the meds caused you to get your first diaper rash! (It was a BAD one!) Poor little bum!

-Up on all fours rocking back and forth-can go backwards—flops/scoots/hops forward. He is SOOOOO close to crawling! So close. He can get where he wants to go though.  

-Babbles to himself—“Dadadadada”

-Sits well in the front of the cart while Mama goes shopping

-Got Croup 

-Rode on his first Carousal at Amazing Jakes

-First Christmas

-Love shows that have singing (like Barney)

-Loved Christmas lights

-2^nd trip to the Zoo

-17lbs 10 ounces 26.5inches head in the 93 percentile

-Smashes face on you for a kiss

-Smile smile smile

-Hesitant towards doctor—but LOVES the attention when they are not close

-No more bouncing you to sleep when you fuss… you had to learn to do it all by yourself now that you are feeling better. You have done a great job.

-You are sleeping through the night (mostly 7pm-5am, feed, back to bed till 8am. However today you didn't wake up to eat. Hope that means your 12hour nights are back!)
-You sometimes fuss with eyes closed around 10pm-12am wanting your binki back in… I have love-hate feeling towards the bink. 
-You are doing much better at really taking naps too!

-Eating Cheerios and loves them

-Did not like your nurse very much after she poked you with your 6 month shots…you got the flu shot at your 6 month appointment too

-Loves Books

-You are SOOO good at playing with toys. I have never seen a baby play with toys so well and not get bored. You love when we play with you on the floor with your toys. Your favorite toys though are Mommy and Daddy’s i-pods, cell phones, computers, remotes, or anything else that has lights and is off limits!

-You can sit up in the bath, but always push back because you want to lay down and SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH! –you enjoy playing with bath toys

-Still drool like crazy-no teeth yet

-Such a ham—cute personality and contagious laugh! Truly a happy boy… but a dramatic one at that

-Size 3 shoe

-Spitting up has slowed down A LOT… still happens daily, but not every time you eat! YAY!

-Loves when we pop out from behind things or sneak up on him and tickle him 
-On Friday, January 13 you decided to start full on crawling! You so badly wanted to get Mama's cellphone and the baby monitor, so you went for it--and you did it!!! (now Mama's life is going to get interesting!)

When Baby C was born he had a little dot on the bottom of his foot. After 6 months it has not gone away. I think it is safe to say it's a little birthmark. I will never lose you now!

Love your Naptime Bed Head hair.. your cute little ramp hairdo feel over!
