Do you like Peeps?

Keaton does. :)

Isn't this smile just to die for... those cheeks, I just love 'em!

On March 24th, Keaton turned 7 months old, and yesterday, March 31st, Keaton had his "6 month" doctor appointment. (Keaton's adjusted age is now 5 months old, and for the most part Keaton acts like a 5 month old.) Our little boy isn't quite as little as he used to be. Keaton now weighs 13 lbs 2 oz, and is 24 1/2 inches long (He is still pretty short, but that might not change to much, well, ever. Ha, ha.) Keaton is in less than the 5th percentile for his age, but is almost in the 25th percentile for his adjusted age. I was pretty excited about that. But, no matter how ya look at it he is still pretty little, but goodness, sometimes you wouldn't think it just by looking at his cheeks!

Keaton becomes more and more alert, active, and mobile, everyday. Lately, he loves playing with his toys, (Okay, mostly he loves eating his toys.)  he is a pro at rolling over from his stomach to his back, but still hasn't figured out how to roll from his back to his stomach, (We are working on it though.) he still can't sit up on his own, but we are hoping that will happen any day now, he likes to make lots of noises, he loves to scream over and over again as loud as he can, he loves being in his stroller, he is starting to be a lot more okay with being in his carseat, (He never has really loved his carseat very much.) he is starting to grab for/want anything we have in our hands, he loves getting lots of attention and being played with and he lets ya know pretty vocally when he feels like he is not getting enough attention, he is getting pretty good at holding his own bottle, although he still can't hold it completely on his own, and he still loves watching his Baby Einstein shows- they really catch his attention and he loves to watch them while eating his toys at the same time.

Yummy! And hopefully, he will love eating solid foods as much as he likes to eat his little Peeps! The doctor gave us the go ahead yesterday to start into feeding Keaton solid foods. So tonight, we will be trying some rice cereal. :)

"Mmm, I love this mom."
