Merry Christmas 2012

6 Months Already?

On November 18th, I looked at Ryan and told him there was no way it had already been six months since Jack was born. Then I immediately remembered how when Jack was a few days old I thought that every day was the longest day ever. It goes so fast and it really is amazing we haven't made too many egregious errors so far. This kid might have a chance... 

Jack is a truly delightful baby and we count our blessings every single day for having such a great baby. I almost feel bad for any of our future children because they kind of have a lot to live up to. 

Jack dropped down to the 25% in weight (16 lbs) and height (26") at his 6 month appointment. But I can still hope that he will get some of the height potential from the Peterson family...otherwise, at least we will have a mighty good looking midget. Which is still okay by me, I adore this kid regardless. Jack has his two bottom teeth, is eating solids and his biggest accomplishment to date is that he is crawling. We suddenly can't leave him in the room unattended or we find him stuck under the coffee table, chewing on power cords, or just wreaking havoc throughout our apartment. 

Enough words. Here are some 6 month pictures. We sure love you baby boy.
