6 months already!

So I'm eating lunch at work and decided I should do a quick post! Gavin is getting soooo big! He is 6 months old now and is:

  • sitting up all by himself
  • loves to eat everything
  • can self-feed gram crackers like a champ
  • is getting better at falling asleep on his own
  • tries to pull himself up to things
  • can scoot on his belly for toys
  • loves baths
  • gives hugs and kisses
  • says da da and ya ya (with an occasional mmmm or ma)
  • shakes his head no
  • can get out of his car seat if he's not buckled in
  • learned how to blow/spit through his lips, and likes to practice this trick while eating (messy but cute, and Dad's favorite)

The other night I was laying side by side with him on our bed reading books. The first two we're darling pop-up books Aunt Carol gave us. He loved them and kicked and made noises the whole time. Then the 3rd book was "How do I love you" that Aunt Jessica gave Gavin. Throughout the whole book he kept turning to me, grabbing my face and giving me kisses, it was sooo adorable. Sometimes I wonder if could get any cuter, then the next day comes, and lo and behold he has!
