6 months


He weighed 20.6 pounds at his check-up! 

We started month 6 with a sick little baby.  It started with an eye cold (which I had never heard of) and moved to a chest cold.  We had one really bad night where he didn't sleep longer than 20 minutes so I took a day off of work to take him to the doctor.  We all caught it- Robert was the worst- but it passed and our happy baby came back! 


We started feeding him rice cereal last month, but he only really started eating it in the last week or so.  We think he's starting to get teeth because he's putting EVERYTHING in his mouth.  He's had a couple of bad days when we can tell he's in pain.  Nola's been very sympethetic and asks everyday if his teeth are here yet.  They still love each other very much!




And we love him too! 



He's able to roll both directions and is pretty good at sitting up on his own.  He's still waking up once (around 3 or 4) most nights to eat. 


Nola never really feel asleep while she was playing or eating, but Turk does!  One minute he's smiling and playing and the next he's passed out.  It's pretty cute :)

 




We've been swimming quite a bit and he loves the water!  I took the netting out of the baby bathtub because he's too big for it.  The first time I put him in it he started kicking like crazy!  It made a big mess.  He loves to kick in the tub and the pool! 


He's babbling, screaming, blowing raspberries, and recently found his tongue- and another boy body part.  He also likes to play with his feet/toes.

He's basically the best and I'm having a blast spending the summer with him!
