6 months + 1 week

That is how old Zack is today. Old enough not to cry for his needle. I was impressed!
He weighs 19 pounds 4 ounces for 28 inches. He is big, almost too big for his swing, his "chairs" and his bathtub.



But, even if he looks big, he is still a baby. He can't sit on his own, can't crawl, doesn't have teeth (if they don't come in another 4 days, Julia will keep the record). He can at least roll over now and travels all around the room, but does it mostly by accident. What I mean is that he doesn't roll over to get to where he wants, he rolls over to avoid being on his tummy. If I put him on his tummy, he has to roll over to go back on his back. Then he gets tired of looking at the ceiling and spots something he wants to reach, so he stretches his hand and Bang he's on his tummy, so Bang, quickly he goes back to his back and so on.




He's laughing at me, knowing I won't get time to take a picture of him on his tummy..

The other thing he can do now that he is a big boy, is eating solids. As you know, faithful readers that you are, he's not too fond of it...yet. Pablum and green beans are not his favorite, but we've moved on to peas this week and he seems to like it!



Otherwise, he's still the best sleeper I've had (he now lasts from 8pm to 5.30am) and his brother still loves him to death.




And we all love him too!
