6 Months

It's hard for me to believe this little guy is really 6 months old.  At 6 months he:

* just got over another bout of ear infections
* is generally a happy guy - so long as he's fed and rested
* puts up with sooo much from his sisters
* just started sitting up and is pretty good at it (thank goodness - we have a very limited number of places to put him, so now a whole new world has opened up)
* is no where near close to sleeping through the night - I consider only 2 feedings a night a good night.  Since we have no crib to contain him and neighbors on such close quarters I doubt we'll be doing much sleep training any time soon.
* likes food.  Well, kind of.  He likes to try lots of different foods, but doesn't eat a whole lot yet.
* is somewhere around the 50% percentile for height and weight.  We made a trip to a legite dr while we were in the Ankara a while ago.  I don't even remember his exact measurements, I would need to convert them, and it was a month ago...but he was about average.
* has a huge head (according to his measurements), but we're just hoping that means he has room for a large brain.....that's his only hope!!!
*gets his cheeks pinched multiple times a day by the Turks and doesn't ever complain





We love this little guy!!

Way to go TJ! It will be fun when he starts giving his sisters payback. Wish we were there to pinch his chubby cheeks as well.

He has changed so much, we can't wait to hold him.
