Weston is 6 months!

It's wild that half his first year has already gone by!

At 6 months, Weston...

* weighs 16lbs. 13oz (34%) - less than he looks! His cheeks and thighs are deceiving!

* is 27 inches long (64%)

* is still such a good baby, with a laid back disposition

* but has also started to cry/protest more to let us know he doesn't like something

* is having more stranger danger, especially if someone walks right up to him and gets very close

* starting separation anxiety if I leave the room or set him down and walk away

* is very grabby! He grabs everything and is very strong

* can be really quiet for long periods and can be a big chatterbox for long periods

* knows how to roll over but doesn't do it much

* laughs the most when big sissy and big bro-y entertain him

* favorite toy is the starfish teether on the exersaucer

* copies us - if you stick out your tongue at him, he does it back. Also if you open and close your hand, he does it too

* still puts everything in his mouth all the time - mostly gumming it on the sides of his mouth, not the front

* started eating sweet potatoes, pears and rice cereal and likes them all

* passed his allergy skin prick test - not allergic to peanuts, eggs or milk!!!!!

* tummy issues got a little better this month but a week ago started up again

* still waking up through the night (mostly with tummy pains) and not napping consistently

Sweet words

Reid: "Weston is so precious. He's up to Heaven and back down precious. That's how much precious he is!"

Reid saw a $1 bill on the counter and said "we can send this to Phoebe in Africa to buy some rain since they don't have much water! They can give it to God and He'll give them rain! Or you and Daddy can go to Africa and build a pool for them."
