SIX MONTHS OLD!

Samuel is 6 months old today! WOW! The time has flown by! Samuel is now 27 3/4 inches long (93%) and weighs 17.6 pounds (55%). He got THREE shots today and was not a happy camper, but then we went to Grandma's house and she made him laugh by showing him Charlie the Moose!

Samuel:

* drinks 4, 6 oz. bottles a day
* eats pears, peaches, carrots, squash, peas, beans, sweet potatoes and corn
* giggles and laughs
* smiles a lot
* makes wet razzing sounds
* loves his morning and evening walks
* loves watching the leaves blowing in the trees
* picks his head up to a 90 degree angle
* focuses on faces
* rolls onto his back from his belly
* puts his feet in his mouth
* loves his play matt and vibrating chair
* can sit up with help
* works really hard to get objects out of reach
* starting to drool because of teething
* holds on like a monkey
* very ticklish on feet and belly
* grasps objects above him
* transfers objects from one hand to the other
* tracks objects, people and the dog
* loves his bath
* sleeps from 8 p.m. to 7:30 a.m.
* wears size 4 diapers
* likes rattles and music
* loves the car
* loves shopping

Now I'm going to introduce him to Cheerios, his sippy cup and continue to read every day. Grandma Apple and Aunt Karen are coming to visit soon. Yippee!
