Happy 1/2 birthday Christian

(one week old)



Our little boy is already 6 months old!!! He has grown and changed so much. Christian continues to bless our lives with such pure joy...



(6 months old)


At his 6 month check up everything looked good and he was doing as he should be. He weighs 17 lbs 6 oz and is 26 1/4 in long...which makes him smack in the middle of average for boys his age.






Here's what he's up to lately...
  • rolling over, when he is put on his back he is pretty quick about rolling to his belly...can't do it the opposite way yet
  • sits up well with help, but doesn't sit alone 
  • growling and making other random sounds simply because he can and he must like the sound..it can be pretty entertaining
  • spitting/blowing bubbles...once he gets on a roll of making the face where his lips are pushed together and he figures out what he's doing, he can keep it up for quite awhile
  • LOVES to be sung to...whether it be to put him to sleep or just for the anyhow 
  • grabbing anything in sight..starting to recognize when we are eating or drinking something..he will grab towards it
  • usually enjoys his meal time of rice cereal, we tried some food (green beans) for the first time on his 6 month "b-day" but that was a definite no go for now...

How can he be six months old already?? They grow so fast...(and now I sound like my grandma, but it really is true!) His big grin is just the cutest!!
