6 Months



Burke turned 6 months old yesterday. I know I say his often, but I really cannot believe how fast the time has gone and that it has already been 6 months since we brought our little Burkie into this world. We couldn't imagine our family without him.

He's growing more and more every day. Today at his 6 month appt, he weighed 16lbs, 8oz (32nd percentile) and was 26.25 inches tall (44th percentile). This week was also a week of milestones- he started to crawl/scoot a bit, he's been sitting unassisted for brief periods of time and he actually slept through the night as well. I'm sure I just jinxed myself by saying that...

Some of Burke's favorite things are eating bananas or peas, playing with his big brother, bath time, rolling around on the floor playing with toys, his blankie and his Nuk. Our favorite things about Burke are his toothless grin and deep gut giggle, his tiny and short little chub legs, his big, brown eyes, his super loud babble and the huge smile we get every time we go get him out of his crib. The past six months has been filled with challeges and joys, but most of all......great memories.
