Six Months- April 29th!

Luke,

You are now 1/2 a year old! I can't believe it! You have changed and grown so much.
I can already pick up on your personality. You are going to be a social butterfly like you father. You are always wanting to know what is going on and and can't stand not watching every little bit of action. You love everyone that you meet, and you have already made a lot of friends.
You also have a great love for food. You absolutely devour any food that I give you (except for jarred bananas, which you hate). I can't feed you fast enough. You have tried lots of baby foods, but your favorite by far is avocado. You can eat an entire avocado and bowl of oatmeal in one sitting. You have been practicing with a sippy cup, but you can't quite figure out how to tilt your head back so that you can actually get something to drink.
You are now a champ at sitting up. You can't bring yourself to sit up yet, but if you are left in the sitting position, you can hold that for as long as you want. You can also bring yourself up to crawling position, but you haven't made any forward progression yet. You can push yourself backwards, but no crawling yet.
No more baby bath tub for you- you have graduated to the sink now that you can sit up- it makes bathing you so much easier!
Our biggest struggle as of lately has been your teeth. No teeth yet, but you can tell it is really bothering you. You are fussy and cranky, and chewing on EVERYTHING. We have been trying to help ease you pain, but we just hope those teeth pop through ASAP.
You absolutely love being outdoors, and we have been taking advantage of that by taking you to the lake, hanging out in the back yard, and taking you to the park. You actually go to same park that your daddy grew up playing at!
You are sleeping like a champ and getting more hair every day! You are my pride and joy!

Love,

Mommy
