6 months

Yay! I'm half a year old!
Nathan had his 6 month check-up on Wednesday. He had to brave 3 more shots. He now weighs 19 lbs 13 oz (90%) and is 28 1/4 inches long (95%). He is such a happy baby. We enjoy making him smile and laugh. This is such a fun age.
He won't be in this infant carseat much longer!
We started solids the beginning of November. He is a pretty good eater. So far he's had rice cereal, carrots, sweet peas, sweet potatoes, bananas and pears. Yum yum!
- Our big boy sitting up in his crib -
His latest trick is pulling himself up from sitting to standing using the crib railing. I was shocked to see him do this. He's a strong little boy! He is making efforts to crawl and has started to scoot backwards.
Last weekend Nathan was very interested in his laundry hamper. Kevin put it over his head and Nathan seemed to think it was pretty neat. Who needs toys when you have a laundry basket?Nathan tried out his piano skills at Grandma and Grandpa Carter's house. Just look at that focus. Kevin and I would love for him to take lessons...when he's older of course.

Happy half-year birthday! We love you!

Amber,
Nathan looks so cute in all the pictures. I love the one with him eating his baby food. It was fun seeing you the other night. Hope to see soon.
Love,
Rebecca
