My Baby is Six Months Old

Parker turned 6 months old on the sixth this month. He had is check-up on Friday. He weighed in at 15.6 pounds (15%), was 26.2 inches long (43%), and his head was 43 cm (26%). He is going down the curve, but the doctor said he is doing just great. He has started to wake up between 5:00-6:00am ever since we got back from California. He wants to eat, but I make him go back to sleep until at least 7:00am. There is no need to wake up that early! I am tired. Hopefully he will go back to sleeping from 7:30pm to 7:30am like he used to.


Parker is such a happy little boy. She loves to roll around, jump in his Jumperoo, grab EVERYTHING, watch Staucie, spit, blow spit, and drink milk. He loves to be smiled at and talked to, of course. He especially loves it when Staucie talks to him. They are going to have so much fun together when Parker can follow her around.
He is still practicing eating from a spoon and did try some squash last night, we will have to try it again.

We are so happy to have our little Parker. He is such a sweet little boy. He is so mellow, but also very busy. He loves his big sister and we love him!

We all love Parker!! He is the best baby - always smiling. I wonder if he can understand the language that Staucie speaks. ha ha Of course, we love our Staucie too. I miss you all so much. Sorry Parker is off his schedule since coming here, but we sure enjoyed everyone!!

I'm sorry that darling little Parker has had diarrhea for so long. I'm sure your doctor has things under control, right?? We will pray he will get well really soon, and put lots of Desitin on that little bummy....or is there something better nowadays???
