6 Months Old

I can't belive our little man is 6 months old. He'll be a year old before we know it. We just got back from the doctor and he is super healthy. The doc said we can take him off the reflux medication hes been on since he was 2 months so we're happy about that. He got more shots today which is always a treat. Carson was screaming before he even got the shots so it didn't seem as bad today to watch. Usually it breaks my heart to watch him get shots. I just hate seeing him in pain. Carson seems really big to me, but he's pretty average. He is just super tall and skinny. Here's the latest stats:

Weight: 16 lbs 7 oz (30th percentile)
Height: 27 1/4 inch (79th percentile)

Not only did he get shots, but he is teething again. He has been a little miserable at times for the past week and a half. He screams when we put him down for a nap or for bed. (not always but a lot of the time) I just feel so bad for him. He won't take his binky because it hurts him to suck. I just keep telling myself that we'll make it through this and it isn't goint to last forever. Other than that Carson is a super happy little dude. He wakes up really happy in the morning and his favorite thing to do is hang out with Chill on our bed. He loves to go out and about so we go to the park, the grocery store, or the mall and that keeps him really happy. He's a trooper! The best news is that the car is no longer an issue. It makes going places so easy!!!

Here are some cute pictures of him at 6 months:

One Happy Boy!

He loves to take a bath in this ducky!

He loves to bounce and bounce and bounce

He loves to bite his toes and pull off his socks

He just learned to drink out of his sippy cup


He's ready to crawl, but doesn't quite know how to move!

Oh my gosh! Look at all those teeth. I don't think Austin has even BEGUN to think about teeth yet! He's so cute. Austin has one of the ducky tubs. I should pull it out one of these days and see how he likes it. I forgot he had it! Let's get together soon!!
P.S. I'm SO happy to hear that he likes the car now! YAY!
