Today Carter visited Dr. Hulsen for his 6 month well visit. Carter was weighed, measured, and received his vaccines. Carter weighed in at 18.11 pounds, which places him in the 70th percentile for weight and measured 27 inches long, which places him in the 75th percentile for his height. Dr. Hulsen gave me the go ahead with baby food, so I will feed him tonight. I'm sure Carter is excited because he is always grabbing at our food when we eat. Carter received some baby food from the E.B., so we have plenty to start with. The only question is, fruit or veggies first?
Carter is not only a happy baby, but an extremely CUTE baby! I know I may be biased, but he's adorable. His personality adds to his cuteness. He sure knows how to put on the charm and smile with those baby blues. Carter is starting to sit by himself for longer periods of time. He enjoys doing push ups and rolling over too. Pretty soon Carter will have four new teeth on top as well. They're so close to coming through his gums.
Well, I decided to go with veggies for food. I chose sweet potatoes for my sweetie! At first, Carter didn't know what to think. He would make a grimace and then open his mouth for more! After awhile Carter began to take the spoon from my hand and shove the spoon into his mouth. Silly boy!
After feeding himself, Carter started to become messy. Messy equals fun!!! Carter is adorable even with food all over his face. I stopped feeding Carter once he ate half of the container because I didn't want him developing a belly ache.
Happy Half Birthday Carter Lynn!! We love you so much!!
