six months old

WOW...I can't believe our baby is half of a year old already! seriously. where does the time go?!? miles is now sitting independently, chewing on EVERYTHING, giving kisses and hugs, playing peek-a-boo, anticipating what comes after 1...2...3!, babbling, falling in love with all things electronic (a boy after his daddy's heart), and thinking that crawling might be in our near future. we went to the doctor today for the dreaded six month shots and here are the latest stats:

weight: 18 lbs 8 oz (69th %ile)
height: 28 in (90th %ile)

he hasn't quite doubled his birth weight...which is fine by me. that infant carrier is heavy enough as it is! he appears to be right on track...healthy & happy! here are the results of the monthly pictures.

note to self...trying to do a photo session with a six month old and props is bordering on insane!

this may be the only glimpse of the sign...it was a bit of a paper cut hazard

look at all my tub toys !

this one is the best for chewing...

...or maybe this one...

...ooh but this tastes delicious as well...

...ah ha! I've got my hands on my favorite! PAPER!!!

irresistible baby toes

the only picture I could get with his two teeth :(

ta-da! the ONLY smiling/non-chewing shot of the day!!
