Can it be...6 months already...WOW!!

Our little cowboy is 6 months :). Justin wanted to get some pictures of Noah with his cowboy hat on before he outgrew it. They turned out great! Noah, as usual was wonderful with the camera! He's such a great baby and a real blessing! We can't believe he's 6 months already- it's past so fast!








Noah at 6 months:
-Goes down around 8 and sleeps until 7AM
-Still loves everyone!
-Loves to play in his exersaucer and jumperoo (goes back and forth)
-Loves to stand (as you can see in the pics)- we're afraid he will be walking before crawling- he HATEs tummy time and lets you know!
-Eating cereal in the morning and veggies at night
-Has liked all the veggies we've introduced him to so far
-Rolls over to his belly and gets concerned- but does better with tummy time if he is the one who put him in that situation...again, decisive baby :)
-Is starting to hold his bottle
-Started introducing the sippy cup- not sure what he thinks of that yet :)
-Still a good car rider- probably going to have to get a big boy car seat soon (we're probably going to invest in a convertible car seat that will last him through booster size- I'm big on rear facing as long as possible and 5 point harness as long as possible)
-Loves to talk, grunt, babble- it's funny b/c Justin and I are relatively quiet and he is sooo not :)
-Sitting up on own very well and he loves to be upright!
-Still gives the best "hugs" and "kisses"!

6 month check up stats!
-22 lbs and 10 oz (I know big baby!)
-28.75 inches (I know long baby boy!)
Is off the growth charts for both height and weight but is in the 75% percentile for head circumference (I'm not sure exact measurement on that though)
-Dr. said he looks great! Said he was sitting up really well and said that makes tummy time obsolete! YAY for Noher- since it's not his favorite activity anyways!
-Gave Noah a book- Noah enjoyed it...eating it that is :)!
-Had Hib and Prevnar- was sad but did relatively well (with the encouragement of a bottle!)
