You are 6 months old! 6 months as in half of a year :) Each month is our new favorite because of the things you do and the never ending joy you provide. We sometimes stop during play just to admire your pureness and watch in awe as you carefully figure out the world around you.
It is safe to say you are like your mommy in the sense that when not asleep, you must be in constant motion. It is in our genes. You are also extremely ticklish...thank mom for that and thank dad for tickling you until our tummy's hurt from laughing!
We have also entered the stage where you reach for EVERYTHING. And EVERYTHING goes into the mouth. You got your hands on an index card the other day and let's just say it was soaked with saliva and about half the size when I got it back. You turn to "feed" on our cheeks and I am convinced you are giving us kisses. Just like when we pick you up and your arms reach out for embrace, that is a hug :)
Watching you learn to crawl is just amazing. You are so determined and diligent in your practice. The swimming I once wrote about is now paired with getting up on hands and knees and rocking back and forth. Now you have added a leap forward like a little spring bunny emerging from it's nest.
You temperament is still extremely mild...thank you for that. We are more confident in our parenting and thoroughly enjoy the countless smiles and giggles that come as a result of you social and happy state of being.
You love your food. Your pallet has expanded to include a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. You sometimes eye what is on our plates as if you can taste it through your eyeballs. Mmmm enchiladas sure beat these prunes!
Your 6 month stats are right on track and ahead of the curve. You are long, lean and strong! I often wish we could freeze time but each day is more exciting and rewarding than the next so we want to know what lies ahead. We love the emerging person you are becoming and know as a fact we were made for each other. You are the ying to our yang and the peanut butter on our jelly sandwich.
Love you always,
Mom and Dad
XO,
EAT
