Sweet Potato! He's 6 months old

Finn's been eating solid food-mostly a mixture of sweet potatoes and rice cereal. He loves it, grabs the spoon and tries to lick the bowl-mainly it ends up all over him and us.

He just had his 6 month well check and he's 17 lbs 6.5 oz (41%-doc says that's healthy and a good stat)
27" HT- 63% percentile
45.2 cm HC- 85%

Zoo Concert




Finn attended 3 zoo concerts this summer.
These pics are from Shawn Mullins and the Avett Brothers.

Bathtime fun



Finn will soon be able to ditch the bathseat but for now we strap him in so he wont topple over.
He kicks his feet and splashes. We have to give him a separate clean wash cloth as he loves the texture and to chew on it- teething is a factor all the time

Peps Baby Fest



We went to Regan's house for a back to school BBQ with the peps ladies. Finn was mellow while others got teary around him. He also loved the rattle in the pictures. It was the weekend that he realized that he could really grab things and control where they go. Mostly that means pick it up and put it in his mouth so we have to really watch what he grabs these days.

G&G Cook's visit




G&G Howitt and Nancy from Florida were visiting this past week from Florida.
We so enjoyed watching him interact with them and get spoiled with grandparent love!

Sitting UP



This is the first shot we got of Finn sitting up-pretty much the first day he started sitting up a for bit on his own. He's gotten consistently stronger-and figured out that he could put one hand on the ground to stabilize himself which was cool to watch. Still not crawling but he's trying just cant figure out the upper body coordination.
