Sippy Cup

We are trying to get Carter J used his sippy cup. He uses it more as a chew toy or a wrestling mate, but hopefully he'll get used to it sooner or later!

Teeth!

This week we discovered that Carter has two teeth coming in. He refuses to let us look at them, but will let us feel them. We are clever parents though and tickled him to show us those pearly whites. It's a little blurry, and they are definately not all in, so you may need to squint to see those beautiful teeth. :)

Morning at the Park

This morning we went to a neighborhood park to play with Carter J. We swang and played in the sand. Carter likes the sand, but we have to be careful it doesn't go into his mouth like everything else does!

Update

The screeching is no longer funny . . . but it is still cute for the first five minutes. :)

Our little screech owl

Carter has found a new sound that he can make. It is hilarious.

6 month stats

We had our appointment today and our pedi was very happy with how Carter J is doing. He is 27.5 inches long (84%) and 19 pounds 3 oz (78%). The shots went ok, though he was not too happy with us for awhile after :(

6 months old!

Carter J turned 6 months old on Saturday! We celebrated by spending the day out on the town and getting our picture taken. We will try to send those out for everyone as soon as possible. Carter has been very active trying really hard to get mobile. So far he is good at rolling both ways, scooting around (especially backwards and in circles), and "swimming." I have been trying to get the scooting on video, but he seems too fasinated by the red light to move, so stand by for that in the future. Tuesday is his 6 month appointment, so we'll have his updated stats then.
