I've got 2 teeth!!

Jack's teeth are starting to come in. He now has two teeth and they are both in front and on the bottom...right next to each other. I can feel a few others barely breaking through his gums but we still can't see them. Those two bottom teeth make his smile even cuter!! Click on the picture to get a better look.

Sippy Cup

We wanted to see if Jack could drink from a sippy cup so we decided to let him try it out. We were so amazed how well he did! We showed him how to hold it and how to tilt it back. He can't keep it tilted back for a long time but he'll take a few sips, bring it down and then bring it back up to his mouth. We only put water in the cup because he gets it everywhere, especially when he gets excited and slings it across the room.

Jack and his sippy cup...big boy!


It works as a great teether too!

6 Month Check-Up

Jack had his 6 month check-up today and here are his stats: Weight - 15 lbs, 8 oz (10-25%); Height - 27 1/2 inches (75-95%); Head - 17 inches (25-50%). He's going to be tall and lean! We don't have a lot of new things to report but he's mastered all the things he learned to do at 4 months. This age is so much fun and he brings many smiles to our face! Below are a few updated pictures and a few fun things Jack likes to do and things we're working on. I can't believe my little boy will be 6 months tomorrow! They really do grow up fast!!

* New favorite sound to make is GRRRRRRRRR
* Working on sitting up
* Loves to blow raspberries with his mouth
* Got his 1st tooth...front bottom tooth has broken through his gums
* Holds his bottle
* Loves to eat solid foods (applesuace is his favorite)
* Can stand up while holding on to something and loves it
* Loves it when we sing "If Your Happy and You Know It"
