6 months

Wow, a half year has flown by! Christian is such an amazing little boy. We just love him to pieces. His little personality is starting to shine though. He is very inquisitive, strong and intelligent.

Christian can now:
~Sit unassisted
~understands to put the popping balls back into his dino ball popper
~Is starting to pull his knees up during tummy time while pushing up - he could be crawling soon!
~Is starting to not like strangers - that bottom lip pops outs when someone he doesn't know tries to hold him or even talk to him
~Is still sleeping with mommy and Ashton
~Sleeping a long stretch in the beginning of the night (7:30 - midnight) and then wakes up multiple times from 3:00 am - 5:00 am and is up for the day between 5:00 am and 5:30 am.
~Still nursing multiple times thought the day and night.
~We just started him on solids - an apple was his first food followed by rice cereal.
~Takes 4 naps (one cat nap in the early morning around 6:30am - 7:15), then another from 9:00 am - 11:00 am and then another from 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm and then a cat nap for about 30 minutes around 5:00 pm
~Has been to the beach a few times now and is not a big fan of the cold water on his toes.
~Everything goes in his mouth
~Wears size 3 diapers and 9 month old clothing
