Half Way To One

Liam turned 6 months old this past Thursday and I am in complete denial! I cannot believe he is already halfway to 1. I recently heard that it feels like it is forever when you are in the midst of it and then when you look back on it, it feels like a blip on the radar. So true. Early on I thought Liam would never reach the stage where he could play and sit up and smile, and now I feel like it was so long ago that he was just a sweet little innocent infant. I get sad just thinking about it.

Things right now are truly awesome. Liam is such a smiley happy boy. He rarely cries (knock on wood), he sleeps well at night, he is always happy and I just can't get enough of him!

He currently: sits up on his own (just started this week), when on his tummy can move in circles and backwards (just not forwards yet), LOVES going to school and playing with the other kids, still does not have any teeth, thinks his toes are the coolest thing since sliced bread, sleeps 11 1/2 hours at night (holla!), occasionally drinks from his sippy cup, thinks his granddaddy is really funny, is ticklish on his thighs and ribs, loves watching Polly and thinks she is pretty funny too.

We also had a check up this month. Our poor little guy had to get 4 shots but he did great. He let out one big scream and then he was good to go. Everything else looked great and he is currently weighing in at 19 lbs 2 oz (78th%) and is 26.5 in long (56th%)
