Levi turned 6 months old on Saturday and he had his 6 month check-up at the doctor this morning. I can't believe he is already half way through his first year! It makes me a little sad. Our Pediatrician said that Levi is doing perfectly and has the motor skills of a 9 month old (I think that might be a little extreme!). Levi was in a crazy hyper mood during the appointment and had the Doctor and the nurses laughing. He hated his shots and looked at the nurse like she was very mean then turned his head away several times after he finished crying. I'm not looking forward to the future shots. Luckily he won't have to get any at his 9 month appointment. Here are the new stats: 18 pounds 9 ounces (60%), 28 inches long (95%), head 46cm (90%). Yup, he's still a big boy!Cutest PJs ever!
A lot is new with Levi since last month.
He is on the move! (crawls in short bursts and army crawls quickly)
He has started to pull up on low things (the bath tub being his favorite!)
He has started solids and eats twice a day. So far he has had rice cereal, bananas, avocado and sweet taters (bananas and sweet taters are the major favorites!)
He plays by himself for up to 30 minutes at a time (his tower of rings, glow worm and soft blocks are his favorite things right now)
He loves to "blow bubbles"...spit bubbles/raspberries, in the bath, in his bottle/sippy cup, on Mom or Dad's arm, on the couch (see video below!)
He is an expert sitter and can go from tummy to sitting and vice versa
He has 2 teeth and enjoys having them brushed (lets hope that continues!)
He sleeps through the night!!! Yipee! He goes to bed between 8 and 9 and then sleeps until 5 and 7 then nurses and goes right back down for 1.5 -2.5 more hours! This has been wonderful! Soon we will hopefully drop the early morning feed.
Happy to sit and play with his toys!
I'm sure there are many other new things, but those are the highlights. Philip and I are loving every second with our little man and we think he is HILARIOUS! I'm sure we are more amused because he is our kiddo, but it sure does make things fun! Here is a little video clip of him "blowing bubbles" on our couch...listen closely!
