Six Months Old

Little dude had his six month check up with Dr. Sears Tuesday. He's still on the small side in the weight range (25%) and on the high end for his height (90%). He weighed 15 lbs 14 oz and was 27 1/2 inches long. He's a healthy growing baby! Dr. Sears says with his weight and age combo he should be going a good 8-10 hour stretch without eating. Next step; continue sleep training. :)
Sleep training, ugh. We've started the process of 'teaching' Asher good sleep habits. I'm a Health Sleep Habits, Happy Child follower. Some agree with and some disagree with this method, either way we used it with Amelia and she is still a FABULOUS sleeper. So we started it with Asher Friday night. He's doing pretty good at this point, but there still room for improvement!
We are continuing on with baby food and he has now had sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, and green beans. He HATES both peas and green beans. I mean he literally will not close his mouth to swallow, just keeps it wide open. It's pretty funny to watch actually. This is a new experience for us, because Amelia ate everything, never gaged or refused anything! Lois tells me Nathan was the same way, he would not eat anything green! Like father like son?? Look out world!! :).

He LOVED the paper on the table!
Hello Big Boy!
