Happy Half Birthday Jace!!!

My little Jace is 6 months old. He has been the sweetest addition to our little family:) We finally had his appointment this week so here are his official stats.

weight: 16.15 lbs 45%
height: 26 3/4 inches 75%

He is only 2 ounces less than Tyson was at 6 months, but he is a quarter inch taller! So they are pretty similar, but Jace may be taller and skinnier than his brother. Thankfully Jace is still wearing all of Tyson's clothes, so that has been super nice! He is in mostly 6-9 month stuff, but he can wear 12 month onesies too, since he is so long. I put him in a 9 month pj outfit last night for the first time and the legs only came down below his knees....not to his ankles like they were supposed to!! It was pretty funny looking:) Anyway, the doctor said he is growing great and is healthy as can be. He hasn't been sick once since he was born and I hope that continues for a while:)
The little booger is trying really hard to crawl. He gets on his hands and knees and rocks back and forth like crazy. He lunges forward to grab things and can usually get whatever he wants. We are baby proofing since he will be going mobile soon.
We are so mean and put this lovely thing on his head and he HATED it, but it was so funny I had to get a picture. He was so angry at us, but was fine once it came off. Mean old parents!!!
My happy teething boy. That kid might chew his hand off soon if he isn't careful:) Ok here are some things in general about Jace at 6 months old.

*He eats three meals a day and gets 4 bottles. He eats a tub of baby food (2nd stage) at every meal, sometimes some baby oatmeal mixed in, and devours saltine crackers, puffs, and baby mum mums like no other. He is pretty good at feeding himself the crackers and mum mums which is nice:)
*He takes a bath in the big tub with Tyson and loves playing in the water
*He has two bottom teeth
*He goes to bed super early....around 6 or 6:30 pm usually. Gets up about 7 or 7:30 am. Sometimes he wakes up around 430 am fussing, but we never go in there. He just works it out and goes back to sleep on his own:) This is getting much better now that he can find his paci and get it in his mouth on his own in the night.
*He rolls over both ways and completely sits on his own with no support.
*He really enjoys being outside
*He takes two naps a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Usually about 1-2 hours for each one.
*I think he is a mama's boy:) Which I love:)

Jace continues to add so much to our lives and makes us smile daily. The next 6 months should be fun with him getting to be mobile! Tyson is really enjoying his baby brother and I know they will have many fun adventures together.
