Where did the last 6 months go??????

Six months used to seem like a long time, that is until I had a baby. I can't believe that it has been six months since we had this sweet little boy. I know six months of pregnancy didn't go this fast (even if I felt great). Our lives have changed so much but I don 't really remember how it was to not have McKade around. He has been such a blessing and so fun to have around and I can't wait to see what the next six months bring.
We finally got a high chair and he seems to really like it. It's a great place to put him when I cook.

Because if I don't have a place to put him he tries to help me out a little too much. I was trying to put the noodles away the other night and he had a death grip on the bag. (He's only in a diaper because he had pooped through this clothes and was going to have a bath anyways, we're not white trash.)

We started rice cereal this week and he really likes it, problem is that his poor little belly hasn't really liked it too much. Tuesday night the poor little boy didn't sleep very well and kept waking up crying and was so gassy. Finally after some mylicon drops and some rocking/cuddling he went back to sleep, only for me to have to get up 2 hours later to go to work. We held off giving him any more cereal until he has his 6 month physical this coming week so I can talk to his pediatrician. We weren't over feeding him the cereal I don't think but I just think his belly was just having a hard time adjusting to digesting this new food.

Usually McKade really likes his swing which has been great for when we are getting ready. This day he had enough of it and was determined to try to turn over/contort his little body in the swing. Funny thing was that after he did this he started to cry because he had himself stuck and couldn't get back. He really is a stubborn boy and determined to do just what he has set his mind out to do. If he sees something he wants he will work so hard to reach it, it's really funny to watch. Just a glimpse of what his personality will be like when he is grown. Oh no, another stubborn person just like his daddy :). I'm in for it.

The other day when I was shopping I found this cute Christmas globe that sings Christmas songs, McKade loved it. He will watch it for about 10 seconds than tries to eat it. On another note he is finally strong enough to push himself up on his arms. I have really tried not to compare him to my friend's babies close in age to him but it is really hard not to. Anyways he is making progress and getting stronger everyday and I'm sure before I know it he will be walking all over. I'll keep my little immobile baby for now thank you.
