Grant and Colton: 6 months!!

Colton turned 6 months old on Sunday...man time is flying by!! There is no way my baby is already 6 months! He is really getting to be such a big boy! He started his first vegetable this weekend...carrots. He likes them a lot better than the rice cereal and has been doing great with them so far. Last Wednesday, he started babbling "da da da da" and he also says "ba ba ba ba." He has started blowing raspberries and still laughs and smiles all of the time!

He pushes himself around backwards on his belly on the floor (which looks like he is trying to belly crawl backwards). It is pretty funny to watch and you can tell he really wants to be on the move like Grant. Grant can still make him smile, laugh and stop crying and he truly adores his big brother. Grant likes that he can sort of play with him now and he really likes being our helper when it comes to Colton. Colton is also learning to sit up, but hasn't quiet mastered it yet.

He is still an amazing sleeper, loves his bottle and pacifier, and wants to be held up where he is standing all of the time. He drools constantly, chews on everything and I'm pretty sure that he is teething. He has moved up to size 3 diapers and 6-9 month clothes. He will go for his 6 month well check next week so we will be able to really see how much he has grown.

He gets spoiled every day by his daycare teacher, Ms. Dorothy, and we are so thankful for her.

Colton has the sweetest little personality and really makes our family feel complete. I can't believe he is half way to 1 year old and his big brother will be 4 in 6 short months!!

Trying out carrots for the first time.
