This happy little man...

is now 6 months old! My oh my, how the time does fly!!!! I can't believe that I've been mommy to this super guy for half a year now. Most of the time, I feel like it's been longer than 6 months...like he's been here with us this whole time. But then I remember that 6 months really isn't a long time in the whole realm of things, you know what I mean? (Although I do believe I'm just rambling.)

So, at 6 months, LBB:

• can now roll both ways. It took him a while, but he got it! However, he only rolls from tummy to back when he really feels like it.


• is eating a full range of solids. He usually has oatmeal and fruit for breakfast, veggies for lunch, and he recently started on meats for dinner. His favorite fruits (it is a close competition!) are bananas and applesauce. His favorite veggie hands down are carrots. And with meats...well, he'll eat any of them so far. :)


• is learning how to drink from a sippy. On average he can drink 1 ounce out of his sippy before getting ticked off. He still would much rather prefer to play with the cup and throw it, but he is learning how to hold it and how to drink from it, so that is a good thing!


• takes bath in the big tub now...no more infant tubs for him!


• is desperately trying to learn how to crawl. He can get his butt up. He can get his front up. And he is slowly starting to learn how to bring them up at the same time!


• loves to dance.


• can scoot a bit. He can move around on the floor within a 3 foot radius.


• does not sleep through the night. I don't know why...we've tried everything. I'm accepting that when he is ready, he will do it. Until then, I'm just fighting a losing battle and I am going to enjoy those late night cuddles!


• is growing like a weed...still. He is wearing 12 months clothes, and can already fit in 18 month clothes. In fact, I put a 2T teeshirt on him the other day and it fit perfect.


• loves reading. Playing. And most of all cuddling.

That's all I can think of for now...I know I'll think of more as soon as I post this!
