6 Months!


Barrett had his 6 month appointment today and was such a ham and show off for the doctor. He can sit up great on his own, loves tummy time, pushes himself backwards, and is loving his solid foods. We have seen him roll over both ways but really seems to lack the motivation to do so often (I'm pretty sure I can count on 2 hands the number of times he's rolled for us). The doctor wasn't concerned, and pointed out that Barrett has a big brother helper that will get him anything he desires (and everything he doesn't desire).

The Stats:
Height: 27 1/2 inches (80%)
Weight: 18 lb 1 oz (65%)
Head: 17 1/4 inches (50%)

We brought Bodie along with us to Barrett's appointment and while we were in the waiting room Bodie stood quietly next to a toy and said "I go poopy". Great! Right then they called us back to the exam room, which quickly began to smell. Unfortunately I had taken the wipes out of the diaper bag and forgot to put them back in, so Curt took Bodie to the bathroom to get him cleaned up. Pretty soon here comes Bodie with no pants on, he had a blow out. I cannot remember the last time Bodie had a blow out and haven't packed him a spare pair of pants in a long time. As we were getting ready to leave the doctor's office Curt tied a blanket around Bodie's waist and Bodie exclaimed "I so cute". It was pretty funny.

(Yes, we sometimes dress our baby boy in pink pajamas.)
