A half a year has gone by since I first held my little one.
Half a Year!!!!
It seems like just yesterday, yet it hard to imagine our lives before him.
Little Michael.
Today we had his 6-month well check.
He weighed 19.1 pounds (77th percentile).
He was 26.5 inches long (61st percentile - I think he was mismeasured last time).
His head was 18 inches (93rd percentile).
Look how big he is! I remember the first picture of him in this weight chair.
He was tipping over and only took up half of it!
He got 2 shots today too. He did better with them than last time...
only cried for a few seconds after I picked him up.
For supper tonight we tried his first vegetable...green beans!
Let's just say he was less than thrilled with the new flavor.
After supper we had a little mommy and Michael time.
He had his bath and we got to cuddle for a bit.

After the bath, while he was somewhat happy we took his "month"
picture! I actually got some smiles out of him! He is usually too distracted by the camera. Lately I just have to sing to him to get him to smile. He must be getting a bit wiser about his mommy's singing voice. He does still love "Baby Mine" though!
He is also becoming quite the roller!
He has a hard time getting from his tummy to his back but he's got the back to tummy thing down!
He is now officially a "tummy sleeper".
It usually takes him all of 2 minutes to roll to his side and onto his tummy.
We're in trouble if he wakes up on his tummy though.
He lets us know ASAP that he's a awake and unhappy about being stuck on his tummy.
He has also found his feet. He can't quite get them up to his mouth yet, but he tries!
The pediatrician also said that it's looking like he'll be getting 3 more teeth sooner rather than later. His bottom left is about ready to pop through and his top 2 are swollen.
Like I said, our little man is getting big!!!
