Is now eating solids. Is now 6 months. Is now grabbing for things, chewing on them, and throwing them around. Our forgotten third child is becoming less and less of a baby each day. He's been just the easiest, SMILE-fest, happiest little guy we ever could have asked for. I can't tell you how many times Brian will say to me "did you put the baby down to sleep?" and I respond- no he's right there on the other side of the couch or something because he doesn't seem to complain or make a peep! Poor guy gets overlooked in a lot of ways. I took him to the Ped for his 6 months check up and she said "oh, he just has one tooth?" and I said "he DOES?"! Hadn't even noticed...
He sure mixes in with the other kiddos and makes our family complete. Above is the big guy himself with Papa on a birthday celebration.
Maggie got a detailed Baby Book. Keegan's is still empty but I documented it all in this blog. For Connor, I find his stat sheets and shot records mixed amongst my work paperwork and Maggie's drawings. So to make it official, here are the stats:
Stats at 2 months: 14.5 lbs (67th), 26 inches (99th)
4 months: 16.7 lbs (55th), 27.5 inches (98th)
6 months: 18.6 lbs (68th), 29 inches (99th)
Head 60th or so
It's hard to believe that at almost 19 lbs he's only in the 68th for weight. He wears 12-18 month clothing and his feet are already a size 2!
For entertainment I'll set him up on his belly and he likes to talk to that cute baby in the mirror.
We think he'll be a blondie like his older siblings but who knows. Eyes are still blue and he still reminds me of a little Irish elf. We love you little guy, happy half-year birthday!
