6 months old today and monthly summary (month 5 to 6)

I'm 6 months old today!  I can hardly believe it.  Mommy and daddy are so proud of me and all my milestones.  Let me tell you what I can do:

I can roll over from my back to my belly but I love to roll from my belly to my back just so I can avoid tummy time.    In the last few weeks, I've rolled over to my belly in my crib which wakes me up from sleeping.  It makes me a little cranky and sometimes mommy will come in and roll me back on my side or back.  When I'm awake, once I'm on my belly I seem to slobber so much more.  I love, love, love my fingers and stick them in my mouth all the time.  I can get 8 of them in my mouth at once.  I can also pick up my toys and juggle them from my right hand to my left had.    I can sit up but I still need a spotter or pillows of course.  Mommy has a video of me sitting up in my crib and falling over.  Mommy yelled timber.  What does she mean by that?  I love standing up.  I stand as much as I can and when she stands me on the dresser next to her, I'm taller than her.  I smile so big because I'm such a big boy now.  I love to talk and I babble all the time.  Mommy will give me the telephone and I like to press the buttons.  I also like to giggle as you all saw in my April post.  I do eat all the time.  I still love my bottle but mommy has been feeding me solids.  I like sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, apple sauce, and peaches.  I especially love my stage 2 solids - oatmeal, peaches and bananas mix.  Yummy!  I don't really care for rice cereal or green beans but I eat them.   Lastly, I love giving big hugs.  Especially when I don't have my helmet on.  I love to snuggle my head into mommy and daddy's neck.  Then I wrap my arms around them so tight.  Mommy calls me her little monkey.

I got to visit a lot of family and friends this month which made this month so special to me.
I hope everyone loves to read about me and all my experiences.  It's fun being a baby!
