"Is he really only 6 months old?!"

Oh our little man is now 6 months old!

He is growing and learning and making us smile every day! We had his well baby check up last week and he impressed the Doctor with his sitting up abilities ( he had to check Parker's file to make sure he was really only 6 months old) as well as his how well he can reach and grab- Parker demonstrated these new tricks a couple times for the office. A few times trying to "eat" the doctors papers and another when he grabbed the nurses hand and pulled it (mind you, it was holding a loaded NEEDLE in it) down and right into his leg! It scared him, of course, and the nurse as well who exclaimed. "Oh my! Most babies his age can't do that!" Poor thing- he had to not only endure that jab but 3 more. But we did end up with a clean bill of health and a good nap (for Parker). His 6 month stats: 26 inches long, 18 pounds. We were told to watch out for yet another growth spurt soon to come! Not too surprising since eating seems to be another thing that he has perfected... and we are waiting for those teeth to come at any time!
