Clayton is 6 Months

This month was a big one for Mr. Baby's tummy! :)

And yes, Nora Kate has still been calling Clayton, Mr. Baby and it's kind of stuck...meaning we call him Mr. Baby a lot!!! 

But back to the tummy...this month Clayton got to try drinking water out of a sippy cup of which he is not a fan.  He will suck the water into his mouth with no problems whatsoever, then he has absolutely no interest in swallowing it.  So at this point he just opens his mouth and lets it all roll back out.  We will work on this an improve, though I'm not too worried for now since he still nurses really regularly!

Also, for his tummy...he has been eating rice cereal and baby oatmeal cereal and enjoying them.  This month I got back to making the baby food again.  I made 100% of the baby food for D, C, and NK, and fully intend to do the same for Clayton.  First up were sweet potatoes and yellow squash.  Both are hits! He does his "motorcycle hands" the entire time he's eating!

Clayton is becoming a really efficient roller these days, meaning he rolls over and over and over across the room.  So sweet to watch him.

Also, this month he had his 6 month check up.  The doctor said he's doing GREAT!  He weight is in the 90th percentile at 19 pounds 8 ounces.  He is 26.5 inches long.  Definitely growing and healthy according to the doctor.  The appointment was relatively uneventful (other than shots), because he was doing great!

Clayton loves watching his brothers and sister more than ever this month.  He is still such a smiley happy baby.  He is so fun! I absolutely love having a baby anyway, but having one this happy is so great.  We love our sweet baby boy so much, we are just a little sad that he's already 1/2 way to his first birthday.  Can time slow down, please?!  I want to keep our Mr. Baby a baby!

Probably one of my favorite pictures of these four.  They were were just laughing and laughing! True smiles.
