cj is 6 months old!!

boy does time fly. we went to his 6 month checkup this morning and his stats are as follows: 19 lbs 13 oz / 27.5 inches long. he is in almost the 90th percentile for both length & weight!! so at 6 months of age, what does cj do?? he can sit and roll. he also can kindof get into crawling position, but doesn't really know what to do from there. he's got 1 bottom tooth, with the 2nd bottom trailing closely behind. he loves to hold toys and move them from hand to hand. although he's not quite babbling yet, he laughs all the time and squeals and talks. he is a very happy baby. he currently eats 2 meals a day: breakfast and dinner. rice cereal & a fruit of some sort for breakfast and a veggie and fruit for dinner. so far he has tried bananas, squash, pears, sweet potatoes, applesauce, and green beans. green beans are the only type of food he hasn't liked. carrots and prunes soon to come. yummy!!

according to the doctor, he's doing very well. she said it may take him longer to crawl due to his size, but he'll get it sooner or later. kaetlyn came to the appt with me and was very disturbed when he got his shots. she was shaking her hands and crying and yelling at the nurse, 'why are you doing that to him?? don't hurt my baby brother!!' i honestly think she was more upset about them than he was... it was very sweet to witness her concern and love for our 'little guy'... even though i guess he's really not so little!

i feel so lucky and blessed and am thankful every day for all that i have been given.
