Nixon's Late 6 Month Post

Ok so I'm like 3 weeks late doing this post, but better late than never right?!?! Anyway, Nixon is definitely getting quite the personality. He is a VERY active baby and never stops. He's all smiles and brings so much happiness to Nic and I. Dr. Cherrington was impressed with Nixon at his 6 month check up. He couldn't believe how big he is and couldn't believe that's he's crawling and is so mobile already.
His stats: 18 lbs. 6 oz. (95%)
28 in. (95%)
I don't remember his head, but it's in the 75%

Things he's doing...
-smiles like crazy
-sleeps about 10-12 hrs. a night
-takes 2-3 naps per day
-knows his name
-eats 6 oz. every bottle
-LOVES his solid food
-eats bananas, applesauce, squash, sweet potatoes, green beans, peaches, pears, carrots and loves them all
-hates peas
-crawls EVERYWHERE
-scrunches his nose when he smiles
-loves chords and wires
-loves to be thrown up in the air and caught
-laughs out loud a lot
-likes to pull Emmi's ears and tail
-knows mommy and daddy's voices
-recognizes both sets of grandparents
-sits up like a big boy in his stroller
-almost grown out of his car seat (3 1/2 lbs. to go til we need a new one)
-wears 6-12 month clothing, but almost grown out of his 6 month size clothes
-loves to be outside
-loves walks in his stroller
-getting to be able to entertain himself a lot better because he' mobile
-loves the water
-loves bath time
-hates water in his face

He is getting to be so much fun, and Nic and I couldn't be more greatful that he's our son. We still can't believe sometimes that we have a son, but we are so so so thankful everyday that he's ours.
