6 Month Checkup!









Jack had his six month checkup on February 3rd and along with his normal round of shots he got a flu shot as well. We go back in a month for his second flu shot. We are fortunate he hasn't been sick yet. Jack weighs 17 pounds and is 26 and 1/2 inches long. This is the first time he is under the 50th percentile in weight. He is 48th percentile!

We cannot believe Jack is already 6 months old! Where has the time gone??? It has flown by and being his mommy just keeps getting better and better. He has become so active and reaching and grabbing everything he can get. He puts everything in his mouth. He hasn't crawled yet but loves to jump, stretch and scoot! Feeding and changing him have now become a challenge. He tries to grab the spoon and anything on the dining room table and he is so squirmy while changing his diaper. He has two little bottom teeth that are so cute! He says what we think sounds like mamama and babababa and a bunch of gibberish. He only says mamama when he is being fussy but never on command. And speaking of fussy, he has developed a little temper we've never seen before. He doesn't like to be woken up (wonder who he gets that from:)) or when we take things away from his mouth. He squeals and cries for a split second than gets over it. He loves his mommy and notices when I leave the room and will cry for me. Makes me feel kind of special! Haha! He loves to go to the park, ride in his stroller and play with his toys. He smiles and laughs more than ever and so fun to be around! I love this stage of Jack's life!
