Drew - 6 months

How does time go so fast?  I was just looking back through Drew's newborn photos and that only seems like days ago.  He continues to bless us with his happy-go-lucky attitude and huge smiles.  He is a true delight of a baby and I feel so lucky to have all this time with him.

At 6 months:
- Drew has started finger foods (avocado, banana, steamed carrots and pears).  He gets very little in his mouth, but loves to sit at the table and work very hard at picking his food up from his tray.  He's so tickled to watch his big brother and big sister at the table.
- Had a bottle break-through tonight with Nate.  Took 0.5 ounces in his quiet room without brother and sister around.  Before this, we can count on one hand how many times he's taken the bottle.
- Still loves to take short naps.  He can nap anywhere.  In his crib, in the Ergo, in the stroller at the gym, in the car....maybe he knows he has to be flexible already:)
- Rolls around on the floor and is most interested in the non-baby toys (Magna tiles, big Duplos, Ethan's trucks, etc).
- Has rocked back and forth on all fours 2-3 times (yikes, not yet!!)
- Hasn't quite taken any water yet (although we have tried out of a sippy cup)
- Loves his morning crib bounces, thanks to Ethan
- Loves reading with big sis
- Loves his favorite song, "You are my Sunshine"
- Loves tickles right on his armpits
- Smiles at everyone and will still go to others to be held without fussing for Mommy
- Loves his baths
- Burrows in mommy's shoulders when hungry
