Happy 6th Month Birthday!



We can't believe Will is 6 months old already! I seriously think this is the best age right now (however, I know I'll be saying that every month!). We enjoy every minute we get to spend with him.

At 6 months, Will is...

- sitting up all by himself for a several minutes at a time.
- Mr. Chatterbox especially when he is getting his diaper changed. Da-da seems to be his sound/word of choice. I'm hoping ma-ma comes soon!
- grabbing at EVERYTHING and ANYTHING he can get his little hands on.
- enjoying eating solid food. So far bananas and applesauce seem to be his favorite.
- smiling, giggling and laughing all the time. He is such a happy baby.
- taking 3 naps a day and sleeping on average 9 hours a night!
- so interested in everything that is going on around him. If I try to feed him when we are around other people..forget about it! He just wants to watch what is going as if he is going to miss out on something.
- able to recognize us when we pick him up at daycare. When he sees Eric or I, he gives us a huge smile and starts waving his arms around until we pick him up. If we don't pick him up and give him a hug right away, he will pout.
- starting to understand object permanence (is that right?). Example, Eric was away this week and I put him on speaker phone to say hi to Will. When Will heard his voice, he started to crane his neck to look beyond the phone to find Eric. It was so cute.

Here are some pics of Will at 6 months.
