Happy 6 Months, Alex!

Guess who is 6 months old...as in half a year old already?!

Wait a minute, does that really say 6 months?!

That's right...I'm 6 months old today!

We cannot believe that our Adorable Alex had hit the halfway to a year mark!  Man, time is flying by!  So what has this little cutie been up to?  

Well, this past month marked a lot of firsts for Bubs, like his first solid food, first ear infection, and first hair cut.  While all the baby milestones are fun, it is the everyday stuff that makes this boy such a joy to be around.  Alex is a happy and content baby.  He loves jumping in his jumper, rocking with mommy to sleep at night, and dancing with his sister.

But more than anything in the world, this boy LOVES his daddy!  No one can make his little face light up more than his daddy.  All Julian has to do is pretend like he is about to tickle Bubs and he will start laughing and cooing.  It melts my heart so much to see the sight of Julian and his boy!

The look on his face when he knows Daddy is coming...

We recently took Alex in for his 6 month checkup.  He is 17 lbs., 7 oz. and is around 26.5 in.  He ranks in the 50th percentile for weight and 40th percentile for height.  He may be around average size, but he is starting to look like such a big baby to me.  I remember when he was just a little guy and now, he's so much bigger!

He's getting so big compared to his elephant!

Bubsy, I cannot express to you how much you light up our lives.  Daddy, big sister Jilly, and I love you so much and you make our hearts happy.  We adore you sonny boy, and we cannot wait to see what the next 6 months have in store before you turn 1!
