High Five!

Mmmm...Food!



Sitting?

...and DOWN.

Water Boy
















Six Month Recap


Time is in warp speed. Month 6 passed faster than the rest! At his six month appointment Ben weighed 19.6 pounds and was 29 inches. He's more than doubled his birth weight in six months. If he keeps this up, he will be 160 pounds by age 2. His favorite daily activities are playing with rattles and grabbing pretty much anything. He loves to jabber and goo at his mirror image. Bath time is a hit as he army crawls around the tub after toys and we've taken him swimming several times at the YMCA. He is showing signs of being able to sit on his own and knows food is coming when he sits in his high chair. Sweet potatoes and carrots are his favorites so far, and green beans got a big thumbs down. And, best of all, he is sleeping!!! He only wakes once at night and the house is blissfully peaceful and rested. :) The cliché is true, all mom wanted for Christmas was a silent night!
