6 months is the BEST!

Wow a lot has happened in the last month! I was writing in Linc's baby book and filling in the small spot that is for all the things that happened when he is 6months, and I ran out of room!

#1 Our little gaffer got his first 2 teeth! He was cute before but he is incredibly cute now. I keep trying to get a picture of them, but its a little hard!

#2. He has started eating solids! So exciting. So far we have tried sweet potato, butternut squash, carrots, green beans, peas, apples, pears, and bananas. The only one he isn't really feeling is the sweet potato, I think he might be a little allergic. Not sure though.

#3. Um, he drinks from a CUP! Its hilarious. He loves to have us help him drink water from a glass. He chews on it while we pour a little water in his mouth - very funny, but he can't get enough!

#4. We set up the jolly jumper (finally) the other day. Ok, if you have a child or are going to have a child, the jolly jumper is a must! He can't get enough of it. He just jumps around laughing and talking and trying to defend himself from all of Roxy's kisses. He even started making some new noises the other day - "d". The first time he used the jolly jumper, when I took him out his little armpits were a little sweaty!

#5. He has started to hang out on his hands and knees, not just his belly. He is so getting ready to move. Roxy has also started playing with Lincoln while Linc is on the floor playing. She will lay don beside Linc and let Linc try and grab her paws. She will also try and get the toys linc is playing with.

#6. We have had to start bathing him in the sink again. For the longest time we would bath him in the big tub with just a little water, but now that the little boy doesn't understand the meaning of staying still or on his back, he automatically flips onto his tummy when we put him in the tub and then proceeds to get so excited he rocks his body back and forth, creating a wave, which ends up in his face. So we are back to where we started until he can sit on his own better. Doesn't seem to matter where we bath him, he also manages to get me all wet.



I think I said this last month, but this last month has been my favorite time with him! 6 months is the BEST!
