Six

Kellis was six months old on Wednesday. Time flies!

Here are the stats from his doctor appointment.
Weight: 16.46lbs - 32%
Length: 27.75" - 90%
Head: 17" - 20% - this measurement isn't entirely accurate cause he kept grabbing her hand and I didnt make her redo it.

So he is still really really tall but his weight has leveled out BIG time. (at 2mo he was 73%) So he is tall and skinny basically! Still no teeth but she said his gums are swollen so there is definitely activity there. He is sitting up remarkably well. He can sit for minutes at a time and is good at catching himself if he teeters in either direction. He grabs anything that is within his eyesight, so we are having to be careful what is nearby. Finally started taking him to the grocery store in the bijorn carrier instead of his carseat. He loves looking around and I can get in and out so much faster. I felt bad he had to be in his seat for the entire 15 hour drive to & from Illinois, hence the bijorn coming out. We started oatmeal and he is gradually coming around to it. He's not thrilled with it. We also started squash and he really likes it. He gets mad when its all gone! He got a great new wardrobe for Christmas and lots of new toys and books. He is set for a while now! My mom even dug out some of our old books she had been keeping, I'm so excited for him to have them. I remembered most of them from when we were little. I have a lot more to report and sorry I've been so bad at posting, its been a crazy month! Kellis just went to sleep after 7 hours of being awake and 2 torture sessions where I tried to get him to sleep and he refused. Its time for me to go sit and stare at the wall for a while. Oh I have a lot of pics too, coming soon!
