6 Months, already?!?

15.3 lbs (25th percentile)
26.75 inches (90th percentile)


Dear Owen,

You are quite a little critter these days! You have been making all sorts of fun noises. Your tsk sound seems to be your favorite.

You have been eating a lot of new foods. Once we got past the boring ol' cereals, you moved on to sweet potatoes, peas, apples with cinnamon, pears, and carrots. I made you sweet potatoes, navy beans, and ginger and you are gobbled that up. We have been given the all clear on chicken, teething biscuits, and even Cheerios. You have tried out a sippy cup but aren't having much luck. We are starting you on the ones with a straw so we don't have to deal with you dumping your drink upside down when we go to restaurants. It's a little harder than the other ones to master for a kid your age but you have fun trying.


You are on the move, too. The ladies at daycare said you "disappeared" the other day. You wiggled your way across the room and got under the cribs. We need to get this house ready for all of your exploration. You are close to crawling. You can get up, but luckily for us, you don't quite have your moves worked out yet. You flip back and forth with ease and prefer to sleep on your belly. You can sit up for short periods of time but you aren't very stable.

Exciting times!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
