Henry's 6 Month Check-up



First, of all I can't believe my baby boy is already SIX MONTHS OLD!! It feels like yesterday, he looked like this.



But now, Henry is 18 pounds, 13 ounces (70% percentile), 27 3/4 inches long (90%) and has a head circumference of 46 1/2 cm (97%!). He is such a bundle of joy, always smiling and laughing deep belly laughs. He is fierce, focused and determined. When he sees a toy he wants, nothing can stop him from getting to it. Sometimes his face turns red and he starts grunting as he tries to master up the physical strength to get to it.







Just a few days short of his six month birthday he started pulling up on objects and can now pull himself up to a stand on just about anything! Its scary as he has had some pretty hard falls as a result of this.



Henry still loves to nurse to sleep and to bury his face into my shoulder when he gets hurt. I love him so much and love to watch how his masculine heart explores the world around him. Henry is such a blessing.
