Six Months!

On December 26, William celebrated his half birthday! Actually we celebrated on Christmas day, since we spent the 26th in the car driving to Colorado. As you can see from the pictures, W is turning into quite the little ham! He smiles for the camera now, which makes taking pictures so easy!

Here are William's stats for his sixth month:

• Height: 99% percentile! He's a tall guy!
• Weight: 20.5 lbs, putting him in the 95%
• Head: 
• Clothes: barely fitting into 12 month sizes. We're about to move up to 18 months!
• Barely in size 3 diapers. We're about to move to 4s soon!
  Dr. T says he's doing really well, is nice and healthy, and she's impressed he can roll and sit up so well considering his size!

What William's up to in his sixth month:

•  He has fully discovered his feet and they are, by FAR, the most fun body part! 
• He sits up really well and can pretty much sit unsupported
• We tried oatmeal but he was still doing the tongue-trust reflex. We'll try again soon!
• He still LOVES his exersaucer and play mat.
• He is starting to notice the dogs more and more and loves it when they come by to smell or lick him!
• He celebrated his first major holiday, Thanksgiving, this month
• Rolls over when he wants to, which isn't very often!
• Is liking tummy time more and more
• Is becoming quite the talker! He LOVES to babble with his thumb in his mouth. 
•  He is going to have a helmet consultation in January. His head is still a bit flat and we're going to see if a helmet is in order. I hope we can get an Aggie one! :) 
• He's more and more aware of his surroundings 
• Dr. T says he should be getting about 3 teeth fairly soon! He's drooling a TON! 

Happy HALF birthday, William! Mommy and Daddy love you and are so blessed to have you as a son!
