Max is 6 months old!!

 

July 8th 2010 -Max is 6 months old!!

Milestones achieved so far this month have been:

Sitting without assistance, eating teething mum mums on his own, he laughs socially, he can pass an object from one hand to another.

At Max’s 6 month check up he was 17 pounds 7 ounces and 27 1/4 inches long. He was in the 50 percentile for weight and 78 percentile for height. He had to get his third round of shots again:( he cried for a few seconds and was over it. We were told to go ahead and baby proof the house and to lower the crib mattress to the lowest level.

He is still eating solids and we are still having so much fun feeding him. He is really starting to show preference over some more than others. He really like bananas and avocado. At his 6 month check up we got the go ahead to introduce more stuff. We are going to start with protein next week. I’m looking forward to tofu but I am not so sure about pureeing chicken and turkey. We will soon increase one feeding a day to three a day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. I will keep everyone posted on how he does with the meat.
