Six Month Update

It is hard to believe that our little one is six months old!

He is getting so big and into everything!

He is a super happy, easy-going kid for the most part.  He is very good at communicating what he wants, whether that be food, sleep, or entertainment. He is now eating solids (pureed) twice a day, and has not yet met a flavor he hasn't liked (he says "mmmmmmm" when he tries something new).

His latest "tricks" include tapping or waving to get our attention, shaking rattles and noise makers, a wide range of syllabic speech sounds (mama, dada, baba sounds, in addition to a wide range of growls, squeals, and grunts), peek-a-boo, scooting and rolling himself wherever he wants to go (before we re-route him), and big, wet, wide open-mouthed kisses for Mommy, Daddy, and sometimes Maddie (blegh). The animals are getting along with him surprisingly well.  Both will come right up and let him pat (smack) them, and are quite gentle.

He is such a lovey, happy kid!

So freaking cute!

Happy baby

It makes a noise when I shake it, and it goes in my mouth!

Six Months Old!

Happy Birthday to me!

Play

I leave William alone on the floor in his room to play and he scoots five feet across the room to find himself the green stack-it ring, gets it on his arm, and starts scooting back across the room with it.
He then heads for the crib and tries to scoot under it for a book.
How is he that advanced already?!?

Boats!

Will's first boat ride!

On our way to Bald Head Island for a long weekend!

Carrots

Ask me how I feel about carrots.
