Half a year! Not for the first time this year I'm wondering where in the world the time went. It just goes past.
Little Mister had his 6-month checkup this week and he's doing just great. He's finally dropped out of the 100% for height, but he's getting so nice and chubbsy with his knee rolls and all. He still has this little darkish triangular type mark thing on his hand, which the doc last time thought was due to contact with limes and sunlight, but it hasn't faded or changed, so it could just be a later-blooming birthmark. He's still happy and smiley and laughy and spends his days rolling all over the place. It's so funny to leave him on his blanket and then come back just a few seconds later and find him gnawing on some toy all the way across the room (or Christmas tree ornaments, eep). He's definitely our holliest jolliest baby at this age and though he has his moments -- it's only fair, everyone gets hangry sometimes, and I myself can be pretty cranky when I'm tired -- but mostly he just looks around and checks everything out and laughs easily. He's just starting on solids, sits up pretty well, sleeps mostly regularly and is overall a delight.

| He's always glad to see me but he likes Mommy best (rightly so). |
 |
| Parallel MDGs at Thanksgiving |
 |
| First visit to the zoo! It was cold but he had a good time. |
 |
| Evidently! (THOSE EYES.) |
 |
| I mean, right?? |
 |
| Hanging at the adults ONLY ward Christmas party. C'mon, son! (Put intended.) |
 |
| 6 months! |
 |
| Let's try some solid foods, boy! |
 |
| Not sure what to think... he ended up eat some sweet potatoes and more or less enjoying the new sensations. |
 |
| Half a cake for half a year! He didn't get to eat any but we all sure did. (Julie was determined his six-month cake wouldn't be neglected just because he's the third child.) |
And now he's all set for his first-ever Christmas on the outside. He's a good boy and we're all so happy he's ours.
