Wells 6 Months

17lb 11oz (53rd percentile) up about a pound since his 4 month appointment.
2' 2.5'' (42nd percentile) grew an inch in 2 months.
44.4 cm head circumference (80th percentile)

Started sitting up in a high chair. 

We are exploring baby led weaning by allowing him to feed himself from food we are eating.  So far he has tried: cucumber, hummus, apple, ground beef, kidney beans, tomatoes, orange, red bell pepper, and oatmeal.  He seems to like it all.

Size 3 diapers

3 naps

Started getting up on his knees almost like he is about to crawl.

Does a little pterodactyl shriek just to explore his voice.

Can sit for a few seconds using his arms as a little tripod.

Will roll all across a room to get where he wants to go.

Sucks his thumb to soothe himself to sleep.

His newborn hair pretty much all fell out and now he has the fluffiest little hairs that look like the down on a little duckling.  It stays flat in the front of his head and sticks straight up in the back.

Has gotten exponentially better in the carseat and can make it through a whole stroller strides class without me having to hold him!

At his 6 month appointment the doctor noticed a little bump behind his ear that she said could be a few things: a cyst (which they would have to remove via surgery), a swollen lymph node, or part of his bone.  She said not to worry (of course I am though) but is having us schedule an ultrasound just to be safe. 

We are really loving this baby stage right now.  Our little man is just so sweet and smiley.  I'm constantly kissing the bejeezus out of those cheeks.
