6 months old!!!!

I can't believe how fast time has flown by with Jacob. He is now 6 months old, and I can't imagine life without him. Our family is so crazy about him, and love every second.

So at Jacob's dr. appointment this week he weighed 19.9 lbs, and was 27.75 inches long. Of course that's in the 90 & 95th percentiles! He's such a big boy! He is wearing 18 months clothing now, and is just growing like a little weed.

He loves being in his jumperoo, and sometimes is just so content with the sway that it puts him right to sleep. I never want to move him though, afraid to wake him up. He doesn't sleep very good during nap times, but does excellent during the night. Ethan is still doing pretty great as a big brother. He loves cuddling up to him when he's sleeping. (No wonder he doesn't nap very well) They will lay on my bed and just hold hands. It's so sweet!

 I just had to put this picture in. Jacob doesn't really suck on his fingers much unless he's teething, and he has been teething like crazy. He fell asleep chewing on his thumb. On a side note, he now has 4 teeth. All of them are on the bottom front.

Carrot top

This month we started Jacob on some baby food, and it hasn't really gone as expected. We have given him rolls to suck on and he LOVED them and would scream if you took it away. So we started up with rice cereal, and he hated it. Every time he would take a bite, he would make a face like he was completely disgusted that I was giving him this food.

Since that first day he has tried oatmeal, banana's, carrots and pears. He liked the carrots, and hardly made a face, but he LOVES the pears and will pig out on them. I took some pictures of him after the carrots, and I thought it was so funny how the carrots on his face matched the orange hair on his head.

 I love his two little teeth poking out in this picture!!!

Silly boys

One of the things I absolutely love is when Ethan is playing (nicely) with Jacob. Sometimes they just sit there and laugh at each other until they both have the hiccups. It is the cutest thing in the world.
