Six months old!

Photobucket

Baby Jack Jack (seems nearly everyone calls him this now, may as well refer to him this way :) turned six months old last Friday. Here he is in all his blue-eyed beauty, as captured by Tami Tripp.

Jack has two bottom teeth, one about 3/4 of the way up, the other just came through this week. He is going through the world mouth-first, trying to find anything to gnaw on and relieve the gums. He's eaten a piece of paper already (the Target shopping list).

He is eating "solids" or gruel as Jacob calls it. Watery rice cereal, sometimes with a mashed banana, avocado (although feeding him this makes me queasy. allergic. to. avocados.), sweet potatoes and prunes. He loves the sweet potatoes and cereal.

He can roll and kick and grab his feet (and other things worth grabbing). He can babble very articulately. He weighs 20.5 pounds and is 28 inches long, putting him in the 90-97 percentile (Freddie was nearly always over 100 in case anyone was wondering). He is constantly loved on by his brothers and all of their friends. He endures it ;)

And that's our baby guy!
