At six months

I can't believe our baby is SIX months old!  This past month has especially seemed to fly by.  Here is the latest list that makes my kid cooler than yours...
- He weighs 14 lb 14 oz (10 %) and is 26 inches long (35 %).
- He has recently learned to play peek-a-boo all by himself, always with a huge smile for his accomplishment.
- He thinks fake sneezes are the funniest thing ever... but only if Dad does it.  If Mom does it, then he just thinks she's crazy.  Dad = laugh for hours.
- He also has very ticklish thighs, which bring great laughs.
- He is super close to rolling from back to tummy, but we don't encourage this so much as we did with tummy to back because we don't want to childproof the home.
- He sleeps through the night most nights.  Hallelujah!  
- Recently, he has decided that naps are overrated.  We are hoping that this will be a short phase.  (It was... only about a week).
- He loves to play with his toys (and already has entirely too many) and sticks everything in his mouth!
- He continues to eat well and hasn't tried anything that he doesn't like.  Although he seems to be a little sick of rice cereal.
- He has found his feet and toes.  Holy cow, so cute!

try mixing rice cereal with pear or apple juice. Bradley LOVED that, and he's pretty much a genius now. Yes, I am taking credit.
