Six Months


We cannot believe our Gus is already 6 months old. We visited his pediatrician for his 6 month check in and got a clean bill of health and of course the usual comments about his robust size: Length 27 3/4 inches (75th percentile), weight 20 lbs, 10 oz (95th percentile), head circumference - off the charts.

Milestone wise: he is totally into his toys, sits up well with assistance and is rolling over from his back to his stomach reliably and eating his solids like a champ.

We've heard it said that the best baby stage is the one you're currently in but I just can't imagine him being sweeter or more fun than he is right this second. He smiles constantly, giggles from his belly for no reason at all, and squeals and goos to amuse himself. He's also a big snuggler and doesn't meet a stranger. We love you, buddy! Happy 1/2 birthday!
