1/2 a year

6 months. Wow. Somehow 6 months used to take longer than this.


At any rate, Jones is 6 months now. We had his 6 month check up today. Lots of shots. But he did great. Big boy.

No, literally. Big Boy:

Weight: 20 lbs - 90%
Length: 27 1/2 - 90%
Head: 17 3/4 - 90%


We are nothing if not consistent.

He is perfect. And completely healthy. Praise God.
And good news - no more ear infections! Also, we get to come down on the dosage for his acid reflux.
All in all a fabulous report. I love my chunky man.
As always, naked and clothed monthly pictures. This task is harder than ever.


All over the place.

Seriously? HILARIOUS.

So serious...


Until Grandaddy came and started a pillow fight!


I wish you could hear this laugh!

6 month Jones:

* Has crazy hair that strangers want to rub. I can't say that I blame them.
* Loves to cuddle and give kisses, although his kisses can often turn into violent bites.
* Started eating food. My mom and I made butternut squash and peas this weekend. He had peas for the first time tonight. More on that to come.
* Can army crawl and pretty much get to whatever he wants. Including Sophie. She doesn't always appreciate this.
* Can briefly sit up, but after a few seconds gravity takes over and he falls. I mean, have you seen the stomach? That is bound to happen.
* Loves to be outside. At all times. And thankfully loves to stroll. We have started jogging in the jogging stroller which he seems to really love. It must be because I am so fast. hmmmm... on the next one.
* Has the greatest laugh in the world.
* Sleeping great, but still eats once a night. But at 12 hours of sleep a night, I am manage. He sleeps from about 7:30 - 7:30.
* Loves making new sounds with his mouth, which cracks me up everytime.

He is my little chunky love!
