6 months old

Wow! Half a year already. Levi, we love you so much. You are a such a joy to our crazy family. You started the month off with the end of your respiratory virus but bounced back pretty quickly. We love how laid back you are. You have the best smiles and you love to give them to all of us (although you continue to hold them back for the camera). You are a little grabster now and get ahold of anything in your hands reach...toys, hair, necklaces, food from the table, paper, hair, strings from our hoodies.  You love to put everything in your mouth. You weighed 17 lbs and 6 oz at your 6 month appointment.
 You love your exersaucer and jumperoo.  Developmentally, you have changed so much. You are now sitting for periods of time. You love your new view of the world and you love to be in the center of it. You carefully and quietly observe everything and everyone around you. You are very aware of your surroundings and you are often distracted by all of the action while eating.
 You LOVE, LOVE, LOVE food. You still nurse every 3-4 hours during the day. You eat more rice cereal than I could ever imagine a little boy to eat. You have 2 huge servings every day. We just started food and so far no complaints yet. You often fall asleep at the strangest times and within seconds. Usually in someone's arms or in your high chair. Your night time sleeping is still inconsistent. You have had a few stretches of sleeping 10-12 hours at night, but then you have stretches where you still get up once a night. You are a growing boy and want your food!

 Your hair continues to remain crazy. I had to cut your side fliers on your 6month celebration. I'm sure there could have been a better candidate to tackle that job! 

 You love to sit with someone and watch what is going on. You are very loved and you love your sisters so much!
