6 months old!

Time has just flown! I can't believe my little boy is already 6 months old. He has so much personality now, seems to have his own sence of humor and can predict whats going on next by observing us - one of his favorite hobby's is people watching.

He squeels with glee, has full blown belly laughs, an infectious smile. Hes grown so tall and so strong at over 22 lbs now. His eyes are still vivid blue,has a facination with other babies and children, all my mirrors are coverd in wonderful baby finger prints.

He gives hugs and kisses and misses us when we are gone. When holding him in a cradle hold he is too long to stay cuddles securely in your arms and instead has a limb or two outstretching from your body.

Over this past month he has learned to clap. He does it to ask for singing, or just when he is so overcome with happiness. Its so cute to see him smile so big his cheeks squish his eyes into little half moons as he so great fully celebrates with his little chubby hands and fingers coming together.

He is a pro at sitting on his own and is beginning to push himself back up if he falls sideways. He is not showing many signs of wanting to be mobile, but he is learning to be a bit bossy as he sits there with an outstretched arm and hand as he forcefully yells "AHHHHH AHH AHH AHH" at an object till someone else gets it for him.

He is learning to pull up, he has always loved standing. And if it were his choice, he'd spend hours jumping in his jumper.

Our little boy is growing so fast. It's unbelievable.
