Casey @ 6 months

Casey is 6 months old today! Summer is upon us and Casey, who seems to really like the outdoors, is having a good time. At his last doctor appointment he weighed in at 14lbs 12oz and measured 26 inches long, but that was a month ago and we are pretty sure that some good growth has taken place since then. We’ll know next week when he goes to his 6 month appointment.

Casey is a work of perpetual motion. Rolling over is so 2 months ago! He is trying very hard to crawl but the coordination between arm and leg movements hasn't been made yet. In the mean time, he is pushing around like crazy with his legs (often meaning the face goes right into the blanket, carpet, etc.) and rolling around like a little steamroller ready for action.

To fuel all of his movement, Casey is a good eater. He has probably tried all the "stage 1" baby foods and does well at meal times. Most of the time he will finish all of his food and is good to go until the next bottle or snack. It is early to tell for sure but he seems to be an efficient eater like Cole - he'll eat at meal/snack times, doesn't spend too much time on it and then moves on to the next thing on his agenda.

Casey seems to have been teething quite a bit over this past month. However no teeth have made their grand entrance yet. Cole got his first two bottom teeth right at his 6 month mark, but we’ll see what Casey’s plans are. Of course, everything Casey gets his hands on goes right into the mouth so all that drool might just be the result of wanted to get his toys, hands and feet nice and juicy.
His progress with the Doc Band is going very well. He has been sporting his fashionable head gear for 5+ weeks now and the progress is visible. We don’t know how long he will be wearing it but likely we are around the half way point already.

Wishing everyone a happy summertime!
