6 Months Old!

Well really he is 6 1/2 months, but we just went to the doctor Friday.  His monthly stats are 16 lbs 3 oz (25th%), 27 in (75th%). Carter thought the paper on the table was the most fun.  Not much of it left by the time his doctor got there.   She said he is doing wonderfully.  He put on quite the show for her.  He wanted to make sure that she knew how busy he is.  She was impressed at how well he could sit, even though he was moving around like crazy.  The food thing is not going so great.  She suggested giving real food that we are eating and cutting down on the bottles a bit.  Here's hoping he turns into an eater!

Doctor Fun, sorry I don't know how to make it the other way



Things we want to remember about Carter at 6 months:

-Not loving the solid foods.  We have tried: rice, apples, carrots, sweet potato, avocado, and butternut squash.  He is really good at not letting that spoon even think about getting through his pursed lips.
-Loves to roll around on the floor, not sure if he will ever crawl, he can pretty much get what he wants this way
-started a new daycare, fingers crossed this works out or he might be in a kennel at Niles's work!
-Two teeth still coming in
-hates the blender!  Never heard a child cry like he does when you turn on the blender
-Still very easy going, don't know how we got so lucky
