Updates at 6 months

<

Jacob is doing really well as usual, he turned 6 months old on the 15th of the month and has started a few new things. He has begun to say Dada as of the 22nd. It is adorable. We are so happy that he is thriving and doing so well. He also can sit up, he tends to sit up for awhile then will fall back or to the side.

He is eating his baby food like a pro. He is not very fond of sweet potatoes, yet, but he loves carrots, winter squash (which he may have an allergy to), and peas, green beans are the next that we will try. He is drinking water from a sippy cup and LOVES his cup and water. He does great tipping the cup back and drinking the water out.

Nana made a visit out to see us about 2 weeks ago and we all had a wonderful time. Jacob was able to spend a few days with her, just the 2 of them. Me and my Mom took a trip to the Columbia Zoo with Jacob and he really enjoyed the fish and other various marine life. We had a great time celebrating my birthday, relaxing and catching up. My mom took a trip to Hilton Head to see my Aunt Julie and had a wonderful time chatting, shopping and walking the beach.

Cereal

Jacob has officially started eating solids (rice cereal). At times he was a little more interested in grabbing the spoon but he did really well with eating the cereal and seems to really like it. Just this past week he has started waving (bye-bye) it is really adorable. I have tried to capture this on camera but it is near impossible. He is so mesmerized by the camera and he doesn't wave all the time but hopefully soon we can get it on video. He also has figured out how to roll from his back to his tummy. He still doesn't have any teeth which I am fine with, he loves to take walks, being outside, reading and LOVES bath time. We are looking forward to a visit from Nana in a little over a week!
