6 months old

So if the next 6 months go by as fast as the first 6 months we are in trouble.  I have joked with Jake that I need to go ahead and start planning Blake's 1st birthday party because it will be here before we know it.

Blake, you are 6 months old and such a big boy.  We love watching you grow and change every day.  You did great at your 6 month checkup!  Here are your stats

• 17 lbs 9.5 oz (54 percentile)
• 26.5 inches long (51 percentile)
• even though you look like a chunk, you are a pretty average little boy.  

Other things you are doing...

• eating 3 meals a day.  So far you like everything except peas.  I even gave you prunes one day {that was a mistake} and you ate them right up.  Your dad says you are a natural born eater. Ha.  Here are the foods you are eating now: carrots, green beans, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, zucchini, apples, bananas, peaches, pears & mangoes.
• you roll around all over the place...sometimes I wonder how you got from one place to the other.  
• you are a happy baby boy and I love your little laugh.  it is the sweetest sound ever!
• you like to sleep on your side and snuggle with the little doggie blanket that Mrs. Joyce gave you.
• you have started going to daycare
• weight @ 6 1/2 months ~ 18lbs
