It's true, Crew is now 6 months old. And the saying is true that with each kid, times moves faster! William and Hudson are so excited that he's 1/2 way to 1 year old.
He hasn't been too interested in eating baby food, but the dr had told me at his 4 month checkup that she wanted him eating at least a little by the time we were there for the 6 month. So, about 3 weeks ago, I started trying. Long story short, he's just not interested! How can this be my child??? The only thing he "likes" is rice cereal mixed with apple juice. Yesterday I managed to sneak in some homemade sweet potatoes and today some pears. I'm optimistic he'll turn a corner soon...
He loves sitting up and playing with his toys. He can finally play and look around at (protect himself from) his brothers. He still flops over sometimes, so I keep the boppy close by.
He's probably happiest in the walker outside or in the exersaucer upstairs. He can really steer the walker around, which is pretty funny to watch. The kid LOVES to be outside.
He still sleeps 11-12 hours at night, with 2 2-3 hour naps and occasionally a catnap in the evenings. He is BY FAR the best baby of the 3. I guess he doesn't really have a choice, being the 3rd child and all, does he?
We went to the dr yesterday, and he's still our smallest baby so far (except for his birth weight!)
16lb15oz (25%)
26.5 inches long (50%)
17 inch head (50%)
And because several of you have mentioned the desire to see "comparison pic" of the brothers, here are William and Hudson at 6 months:
