6 Months




Max had his 6 month check up yesterday ( he is not 6 month until Feb. 5th)!!! I cannot believe how old he is getting!!!
Here are his stats:

Weight: 16.8lbs, 40%
Height: 26 in, 40%
Head Circumference: 90% (i do not remember the actual size)!!

So, our kid is solid, and SUPER smart.

Here are some things that Max is learning or has mastered so far:
-smiling
-laughing
-Only wakes up once a night to eat, but when he has had no nap during the day I can get a solid thirteen hours of sleep out of him
-rolls over, but prefers to scoot on his backside to get to different places
-He is not and never has been a cuddly baby, too much to do for him to lounge around
-Loves a hard surface to lay on, the harder the surface the better
-Is super alert and LOVES to people watch
-LOVES to go on grand adventures (Grammy's words), and hates to be inside with his mom all day
-Still hates his carseat, and now we found out hates his stroller too
-Prefers to be naked, when he starts to get fussy we just take off his clothes and let him chill in his diaper and he is happy as a clam
-Has started rice cereal, and is slowly getting the hang of it. He loves to watch people eat and opens his mouth when you put food to your mouth, I think he wants to get past the rice cereal and get to the good stuff!!
-He is fascinated with hands, and wants to put everything in his mouth
-Likes to grab anything and everything he can get his hands on!
-He is a chatter box, and has a lot to say, and he will not be ignored!!
-Loves his baby Einstein and gets to watch it when momma needs a break!
-Loves to spend quality man time with his dad

We LOVE Max soooo much and are soooo grateful for the time we have had to be around him, and cannot wait to see what the next 6 months has in store!
