Six Months Old

Lewis is 6 months old today and I just can't believe it!!  It seems like yesterday I was having to wake up every three hours to feed him.  We went to the doctor this morning and he's doing great!!  Dr. Schofield said he was a happy, healthy baby and Dan and I feel so lucky to have him.

He weighs 19 pounds 12 ounces (the scale said 19.8 pounds so I converted .8 to ounces but now that I think about it the decimal on the scale might have been in ounces so let's just say he's shy of 20 pounds).  His weight puts him in the 83rd percentile.  He's 27 3/4 inches tall which is the 89th percentile and his head still measures in the 90th percentile.  He's just growing like a weed!!


It's a fuzzy picture but here he his sitting up all by himself at the Dr.'s office this morning.  He even sat up all by himself when I put him on the scale.  I had just told the nurse he couldn't do it by himself so he quickly made a lier out of me.


Here is a typical Lewis face, he's biting his lower lip.  He hasn't started crawling yet but he's practicing by pushing up on his hands.  He still has those baby blues (and I hope they stay that way).  Notice the blue blanket he's laying on (it was my dad's but that's not why I wanted you to look at it).


Here's another typical Lewis pose.  He likes to grab a corner of the blanket and then roll himself in it like a burrito.  Not sure why, probably just because he can.
