6 Month Stats

Wow little man. Your momma is awful at keeping up with this blog. I am so sorry! I will try to do better, but I can't make any promises. You are a handful and there is a lot going on right now it the Acker family...I will fill you in later :)

I wanted to update you on your 6 month stats: At 6 months you weighed 18 lbs 8 ozs and you were 28 1/2 inches long. You stated eating your yellow veggies (carrots, squash and sweet potatoes so far) and you LOVE them! I have to add a little cereal to the squash because it its too runny for you. I have been making all your food so far, hopefully I can keep it up! It is so easy. It saves us a little money, but honestly, not a ton. (The baby cook was a Christmas present from Mimi so we didn't have any start-up costs.) I really enjoy making it for you, its kind of fun.

You had a runny nose and you were pulling at your ear so, of course, I took you to see Dr Harvey. He assured me your little ear was fine and you were just teething. Until then I will take all the gummy kisses I can get!

You are rocking back and forth like a mad man. You even straighten out your legs so only your hands and feet are touching the ground. You can go from sitting up to on your belly, from on your belly to sitting up and you can roll all around the room. But you can not crawl. No army crawl, no backwards crawl, nothing. I think your just a too little large for your little arms and once their muscles are stronger you will be on the go! I will post some videos and pictures of you tonight. Your Aunt Lizzy will be mad at me if I don't!!

We love you to pieces little man!
