Felix turned 6 months old on September 18th! It's hard to believe. And quite a relief! I feel like you can take a little bit of a breather once you make it to 6 months. Things start to get a little easier..
- Felix is now sitting up. He's gotten a lot better within the last week but we still have to keep a pillow behind him. After a while he will fall over and he usually cries!
- He seems to be wanting to chew everything but no teeth yet
- He's become very vocal and uses a lot of "AHH..." and variations of that. He also says "agoo" and "agee" and kind of spits when he does that.
- Felix really likes his baby food. He eats any kind and isn't picky.
- He has a few ticklish spots... they include his sides, under his chin, and the bottoms of his feet. He has the sweetest laugh! Love it.. there's just nothing sweeter.
- He loves any affection he can get and is just appreciative when we turn his way.
- Felix is getting more active. He smacks things with his hands - particularly when he's in his high chair. He also enjoys books - especially touching them and trying to put them into his mouth.. but he does like looking at the pictures and hearing our voices.
- He is a chunky little guy and weighs over 20 pounds.
- His hair has gotten a lot longer on the top and is still curly!
- His eyes are sort of a hazel-brown color.
- One of his favorite activities is taking a bath. He's been thrown into the tub with the big kids now and sits in his bumbo in the bathtub. He might get splashed a little from time to time but he tolerates it pretty well.
