6 Months Old

Ace was 6 months old yesterday. We went for his 6 month well-check today. My sweet baby boy is getting so big! He is 28 inches long in the 95th percentile and 18 lbs in the 90th percentile. He did really great at the doctor's office! He smiled & talked to the nurses, and he only cried a little bit when he got his shots. He was much better after Daddy picked him up!

At 6 months, Ace:

• Rolls from front to back & back to front, especially to get something of Jett's!


• Sits up by himself, although excitement makes him tip over:)


• Loves his baby food, especially pears!


• Loves his paci & can put it in his mouth himself.


• Can use a beginner sippy cup, anything to be like big brother!


• Talks all the time & can say Da Da, and even Daddy on occasion.


• Will reach for Momma, especially if he's sleepy.


• Loves his big brother & thinks he is the funniest person ever!


• Loves to gnaw on just about anything, teeth should be here soon.


• Loves to play cars with Jett.


• Is so ticklish & has the best laugh!


• Is a great sleeper, almost always 8 hrs straight:)


• Loves to bounce in his exersaucer.


• Gets really frustrated on his tummy because he wants to crawl! Should be just around the corner:)

Ace's 1st Word!

Ace said his 1st word on Friday evening, August 12th! And of course, it was Da Da! We only work on Momma everyday! Now Jett & I are wondering which word will come next...Jett or Momma? Ace loves to talk! He babbles all the time & loves to say Da Da, especially when he gets frustrated. Ace is almost 6 months old, and we are so excited to record all of his milestones! We are curious to see just how big he is at his check up.
