6 Month Check-Up

Long and lean
Yum! Green beans!

Boy are these good!

Trying out the sippy cup

Today Nicholas had his 6 month check-up with his pediatrician. He has grown a lot in length...he is now 27 inches long so he's in the 70th percentile for height! Yay! He's taking after his daddy! He only weighs 14 pounds 11 ounces though so he's definitely a long and lean baby. Tonight he had his first taste of "real" baby food-green beans-and he loved them. He gobbled them up as fast as he could! Dr. Thompson suggested we started introducing him to a sippy cup so it's easier to get rid of his bottle after his first birthday, so tonight he had his first try. He's not really sucking on it yet, he just likes to put it in his mouth and chew on it, so we will keep trying. I cannot believe that our baby will celebrate his half birthday on Thursday...where in the world does the time go?!
