Kellen is 6 Months Old!

How cute is he?  This little man just melts my heart!

Kellen did NOT like getting his shots this morning!  Holy Moly!  In the past they have barely phased him and he has barely made a peep.  Today he started wailing at the first shot and was pretty inconsolable after she was done with all 4 (he also got the flu vaccine this morning).  The doctor said he looks perfect!

At six months old he can sit up, roll from front to back and back to front, he’s eating 2 meals a day and so far loves everything we’ve given him with the exception of green beans, he has started talking more and loves to hear the sound of his voice (and I love to hear it too, it is so sweet), he’s SO SO SO happy the majority of the time, he’s sleeping through the night, he can scoot himself all around the floor and is starting to pick his legs up under himself like he’s going to start crawling soon (gasp!), he plays with his toys, he loves his brothers and laughs hysterically at them, he loves to nuzzle his face in my neck and will grab onto the sides of my face and give me big kisses.

And, per tradition, the 1/2 Birthday Cake!  The “Bigs” are very excited about celebrating his half birthday!  ;)

And the growth chart!  Looks like he’s settling into the 75th percentiles.  I was surprised to see the drop considering how much he has been eating, but he also wouldn’t eat solid foods for 3 weeks after he had the flu.  Next visit is at 9 months!
