6 months old

Beckett’s 6 months old today.   And contrary to who I thought was the biggest baby in the family age for age… he is actually the smallest – at least for weight.  His stats:  17 lbs 10 oz and 29 inches long.  Long and lean (he gets  that from his dad’s side – mom’s side only comes into half that equation!  Ahg, German heritage).

He’s really into spitting these days.  He’ll blow bubbles of spit at you and then laugh like crazy.  Good thing that Campbelle and Christian are enamored with the practice – otherwise we’d have some pretty grossed out kids.  So between his spit up, drool (2 teeth and counting)and now spitting – it’s a constant state of dampness with him (as well as those holding him).

He continues to be our happy go lucky baby.  His easy smiles for everyone – familiar or strange – capture our hearts; and we hold on and breathe in these days, for they are going far too quickly.

 

(and now I’ve officially done a better job the 3rd time around of chronically the kids’ monthly photos.  Sorry Campbelle and Christian.)
