Deven is 6 months old!!

He has his check up next weekday I thought I would give a summary today! As I'm sure all you mom's and dad's know kids grow up fast and Deven is no exception. Between his continuous smile, hilarious raspberries, and babbling dah dah dah nick and I can hardly keep up with our little man.

I will try my best to summarize though:

weight: ~18.08 (unofficial)
Height: see check up blog next week
Hair: it's finally growing and seems to be coming in very blond

Likes:
*rolling over back to front and front to back. He's attempting to sit up but has a long way to go there
*sitting (assisted)
*babbling dah dah dah and sometimes mah mah mah but with no relation to nick or me ; )
* sucking his toes...they must be good
*showing us that he can still sleep through the night but then for fun waking up a couple times the next night
*eating solid foods - blueberries, apples, pears, turkey, squash, peas... yum yum yum!
* Mr. Star on his Einstein chair continues to be his best buddy
* Santa because he brings lots of great presents like a xylophone and a munchkin music box.

Dislikes:
* bananas, these are gross and will be spit across the table if inserted in his mouth
* staying up past bed time - while it doesn't preclude him from waking later Deven is a 7pm kinda guy
*bugger sucker - school has given Deven many good opportunities for growth but has also given him a constant runny nose that occasionally has to be cleared for him to be able to sleep...not fun for anyone!

*sitting still - Deven is mentally on the move but just can't get his body to cooperate; we do a lot of the moving for him at this point.

Well that's it for his monthly up date, here is Deven celebrating his 1/2 b-day sucking an apple at Starbucks assisted by Nick!
