Ryan at 6 Months

I am a bit behind on blogging. Ryan turned 1/2 a year old on January 6! "Bubba", as Dustin, Taylor and I like to call him, is such a joy. If he's not smiling and laughing, it's because he's eating or sleeping (or hungry or tired). He just hardly EVER fusses! Here's some fun facts about my sweet 6 month old boy...

-He weighed in at 20 lbs 13 oz (90th %) and 27 inches (60th %). He got FIVE shots at the doctor, because I got his H1N1 and regular flu shots along with his 3 regular vaccinations. It was SO SAD!! Thankfully, the nurse was very quick!

-He is officially rolling everywhere! He started rolling from his back to his tummy at 5 1/2 months. He hasn't quite figured out how to roll where he wants to go, but he's mobile!

-He is pushing up on his knees and rocking back and forth. I think he'll be crawling soon! He's scooting backwards really well! :)

-He LOVES baby food. So far, he is eating peas, green beans, carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, and applesauce. He still enjoys cereal, too. He is down to 4 bottles (6 1/2 oz each) per day instead of 5.

-He is developing somewhat of a schedule...Wake up around 7, long nap in morning and evening with a small cat nap in afternoon, bedtime after bottle about 9.

-He still loves to bounce in the johnny jump-up, play on the floor and explore the toys on his exersaucer. He is not a fan of the bumbo unless he is being fed, and he does not enjoy sitting up.

-He absolutely adores his sister (and any other females for that matter). This boy is a flirt!! His sister can bring a smile to his face no matter how difficult his day is. :)

Here are some pics of our precious boy...
