On Wednesday August 26th John turned six months old! Each day brings new smiles and more personality. The last six months have been the best months of my life. There is no love like the love two parents have for their child. I love watching John grow, laugh, learn, and play, each day is a new adventure. We are always getting complements on how he is such a good baby. Everyone loves his eyes and thinks he looks like the Gerber baby.
On Friday we went to the pediatrician for John's six month check up. His pediatrician says he is looking great. She is pleased at how well he has done on his stage one foods and we can now move to stage two. John will now get baby food breakfast, lunch, and dinner. John has tried all stage one foods. His favorite vegetable was sweet potato. His favorite fruit was applesauce.

Weight: 18 lbs and 4 oz (70 percentile)
