Yep, today our little man is 6 months old!! YIKES!! Time flies, doesn't it?? Well, it has for us!! Anyway, we don't go in for our 6 month appt until sometime next week, so I don't know his stats right now. I can guess at his weight; somewhere around 19 1/2 lbs give or take a few ounces. I know, I always go on and on about how happy and content this little boy is...but I can't help it!! I can't emphasize it enough! He loves to be sitting, playing with anything that is in front of him--which I think I mentioned the last update that I wrote about him. Somethings that are new though... He finally sucks his toes! There for a while, I was thinking he was never going to be able to do that given that his tummy is huge. Turns out it's all MUSCLE and he is able to contort himself to pulling the toes into his mouth. Kateli and I witnessed this feat this morning as I was changing his diaper. He has had his first taste of solids! Yep, this morning Kateli, Joshua and I all sat down to breakfast. Kateli ate cheerios, I had cereal and Joshua had rice cereal for the first time. I got it on video, and I wish I had one of those little point and shoots so that I could easily download the video and post. However, I've got to download it from the video cam and edit it to put it up on the web. I'll see if I can get that done soon! But, take my word for it...it was funny!! He did great and ate well. In the beginning he was not quite sure about that "stuff" in his mouth and he would make a funny face and push it back out with his tongue. He did manage to eat a little bit though. Then, tonight as we all sat down for dinner, Joshua ate a whole lot better! Well, that's it for now...I'll update more later!
Here he is after breakfast this morning. Not too messy, right?
