1/2 Way There!

Could it be, really?! My little boy is 6 months old today!!!  We're half way to the one year mark and it just doesn't even seem possible.  He is just such a smiley, giggly, laid-back little guy.  If I'm in the room, or anywhere around in his line of sight, he won't take his eyes off of Momma.  Okay, so I'm going to have another Momma's Boy on my hands, but I'll cherish these times now until they're 10 years old and hugging on me is no longer cool. :)

I don't have exact stats yet; his 6-month checkup is next week at the pediatrician.  But we know he's a chunk, at around 19lbs., and not that tall.  It runs in the family, so he didn't stand a chance.  (The height factor, not the chunkiness!!)  As documented in my earlier post, he has two teeth that have broken through on the bottom.  I think he's just anxious to eat more solid foods.  Every time we sit down to dinner, he eyes my plate and drools with envy.  Chase is getting better and better about sitting up on his own, but he's just such a rolly-poly.  He loves to just lay on his back and rock from side to side holding onto his feet.  Keeping socks on his feet these days is quite the battle. 

I'm still doing great as far as making his baby food and haven't found anything that he doesn't like yet.  Chase has enjoyed carrots, sweet potatoes, peas, squash, pears, bananas, and apples.  He's usually a pretty good sleeper still, but has his moments lately while battling teething.

That's it for now!
