Happy 6 Months Daniel!!!

Weight: 16 lbs. 2 oz.

 I can't believe my baby boy is already 6 months old! I'm not sure where the time went but it sure has gone by super fast. I was looking at pictures of him when he first came home and I already couldn't remember what it was like to hold my 5 lb baby boy :( He is so much fun though! We're loving all the new things he is doing!

- He is a rolling boy now! He is rolling from his back to his belly and belly to back all the time. He is also starting to scoot around a little but he is mainly only scooting in a circle. I don't think it will be long though before he gets the forward motion going. He is starting to pull himself up to his knees. He wants to crawl so bad and I don't think its going to be long now.

- He is sometimes able to sit up on his own but he LOVES his feet! So when he is sitting up it doesn't last long before he finds his feet and leans forward and then face plants into the floor :)

- Daniel still loves bath time and especially loves to drink the water and eat the wash cloth :)

- He is wearing 3-6 month clothes and some 6-9 month clothes. Everyone says he is so big but he is still pretty small and is definitely short but that's fine :)

- Daniel is such a happy boy! He really only gets upset if he is really hungry or if he is really tired. I love that he is so happy because it makes taking him places so much easier and makes our days at home a lot more fun. He loves being around people too. He loves to "talk" to them and have people play with him. He doesn't have to be held all the time though. Sometimes if he is getting fussy I'll put him down with his toys and he is super happy to just play by himself as long as he can see people he knows around him.  He has the best laugh and smile. I love when he starts to giggle for no reason but its great when we can get him laughing.

- Daniel is still great in the car. I really hope this lasts because we like to go places. Right now he is able to entertain himself pretty well in the back seat though. 

- Daniel is such a curious little boy. He loves to explore and you know when he wants something because he gets such a determined look on his face and he will do anything to get it. Its pretty cute to watch him be so serious and then laugh and play once he gets the toy or to the place he wants to be. He gets the same look when he sees someone he doesn't know, he'll just watch the person and stare until they look at him then he turns away.

- Teething has begun too although no teeth are poking through yet. He hasn't gotten fussy but he does love to chew on just about everything (especially his little worm) and he is drooling a lot! I hope teething isn't too hard for him.

- I love how relaxed he is. He is so content to play or to sit and watch us make dinner or work on a project. He really only gets upset if he is hungry or tired. We love it too because its easier for us to do fun things with a content and happy boy :)

- He is doing pretty well with sleeping through the night too. Most of the time he doesn't wake up and when he does its usually because he is hot, cold or he pooped his pants. He doesn't need a bottle to get back to sleep and usually Mike can just give him his pacifier and he'll do back to sleep on his own which is awesome!

Admiring the tree :)

He likes to help in the kitchen :)

He rolled himself across the room and stayed there for about 20 minutes until I moved him....silly boy :)

We love you Daniel! You are the perfect addition to our family and we can't imagine life without you and most of time we can't remember what life was like before you! We're so excited for all the new things you're learning and we can't wait to experience them with you!
