My First Christmas

Christmas Morning

Well I had my very first Christmas and I must say now I know why people, especially my brother, get so excited about it. First of all, there are all the pretty lights on the houses and the Christmas tree. Second, I get to spend the day with my whole family and have fun with them. And then there is all of the presents! Wow I love getting stuff and I love ripping at the wrapping paper even more. I think, right now, that is the best part! I got lots of new toys from everyone that I am enjoying playing with. I can't wait till next Christmas, my brother and I are counting down the days....

"Yeah, I love wrapping paper and ribbon!"

6 Month Checkup

Hanging out at the Doctor's office

Wow the first 6 months of my life have just flown by! Can't believe I am about to enjoy my first Christmas, woohoo! I went to the doctor and had my checkup and got my stats. I am now 19 pounds and 15 1/2 ounces (85th percentile) but let's just call it 20 pounds okay! I am 28 inches long which puts me in the 93rd percentile (I guess that explains why EVERYONE I meet says "wow he is a BIG boy") and my head circumference is 45 cm which puts me in the 75th percentile (big noggin). Mama looked up Ewan's stats at 6 months and I am MUCH bigger than he was at this age. I had my shots too (yuck) but I was tough and only let out one little cry. I think my mama is getting a little frustrated with my growth, 'cause she had to go out in the shed and dig out the 18 month clothes. I guess that's what happens when you eat and sleep all day! Mmmmm food, I am starting to get hungry again.....
