Andrew: 6 months

Andrew is 6 months old already! He is 17 lbs. and 29 inches. For height he is in the 97th percentile and for weight in the 30th percentile. Time sure has gone by quickly. He had his first bottle of pumped mommy's milk this month. He liked it just fine. Such a nice thing to use occasionally! He loves to grab at faces and toys. He also loves to watch new people; usually with a blank stare on his face. Andy likes to sit up with help, but hasn't yet been able to do it himself. He usually folds over, leans to the side or back. He loves to hold things that are crinkly and make noise. He lost the last few long hairs on his head and now it looks like he has a little buzz cut! But, it's just growing in that way. Andy loves to roll over and over and over! He is very calm and happy. Once I went in to get him after a nap and his arm was stuck in between the rails, but he just was sucking on his fingers and didn't seem to mind at all! He still drools a lot, chews on his fingers and other people's fingers too! He has started spitting and sticking out his tongue to blow bubbles. He still has some dry patches on his arms and legs, but it doesn't seem to bother him. He likes to put weight on his legs and try to stand up in your lap. He eats some rice cereal and fruit or veggies once a day around lunch time. We tried to give him some puffs but he wasn't so sure about that yet. Emery and Lucy love to make Andy laugh, hold him, and play with him. Emery especially is so good at helping mommy out with Andy.
