6 Months

Today my little boy is 6 months old, so crazy! At Church on Sunday someone was commenting on how big he is getting and I told her he was six months, and her response was, "Wow, when did that happen?" I think all of us feel that way about our kids, and seriously this little guy is getting too big too fast. His 6 month check up is not until the end of July, but I should get his weight and height next week when we go to his appointment at Primary's. Our guess is that he is 18 lbs, which was Rylee's weight at her first birthday! He is sitting independetly really well now, and can even save himself when he starts to tip over. He is a great roller and he even rolls after his toys. He reaches for anything and everything he can get his hands on. Rylee is still the most entertaining person/toy that he has, and it is still great entertainment for us to watch too! He loves to eat and would do it all the time if I would let him. He is on solids twice a day now, about to start three times a day. I just moved him up to the "2nd's" in baby food, because he was eating 2 1/2 size 1 baby foods each sitting. We have started to let him cry it out to go to sleep at night and he does so well, he has never cried more than 25 minutes - even the first night. He is only waking once at night for a bottle sometime between 4 and 5, and I am just fine with that. We are pretty sure he will be crawling in the next month or two because he is already trying, and I am a little worried because of all the "little" toys/money that Rylee carries around - time to start teaching her about choking hazards! :)
