Dear Cason,

Dear Cason,

Today, you are 6 months, 2 weeks, and 5 days old! At your 6 month check-up, you weighed in at 18.4 lbs, and measured 26 ¾” long. Big boy!! Recently, you have started to:
Crawl…. Slowly, quickly, on your knees, and on your toes!
Say, “Da-da”. Sometimes, mainly when you are upset or hungry, you cry, “A-ma”, which to me translates as Mama.
Pull up on … everything! Furniture, peoples legs, stairs, toys, anything and everything you can get your hands on.

You are getting more accustomed to eating. You like squash, bananas, mashed potatoes, apples, pears, corn, sweet potatoes and strawberries-n-bananas. You don’t care for sweet green peas, or carrots, too much. You’re favorite is oatmeal cereal mixed with a touch of banana. Yumm!

This week, you have really started to “play”. You love your toys. We keep them in a basket in the living room and you know right where they are!! You love to dump the basket out and scatter them all over the floor, and do your best to climb into the basket. Funny, your favorite things to play with are shoe boxes, baskets, and empty paper towel rolls!

Bath-time is definitely a fun time in our house. You love to splash and play, especially when Lucas is in the tub with you. As soon as I take you into the bathroom and you see him in the tub you just start laughing! We have made several trips to the pool and you love to be there too! Water baby.

Half a year has flown by, baby boy! Before we know it, we will be planning your first birthday party and watching you walk!
