Camden is 6 months old!

Wow! The last 6 months have just flown by! I can't believe my baby is getting so big! His well-baby exam isn't for a couple weeks still so we will get his official numbers then but a week ago he was about 15 lbs and is about an inch shy of growing out of his infant car seat!

Camden rolled over for the first time early this last month but hasn't really done it since. He loves to roll onto his side and just hang out there for a long time. He also loves it when mommy props him up to the ottoman (pictured above) with a toy so he can practice his balance and strengthen his legs. He is very strong and can stand and balance for quite some time. Camden also still loves to talk and smiles and laughs easily. He continues to sleep well through the night but will periodically wake up around 3:30 or 4 a.m. wanting his pacifier and will then go right back to sleep until 7 a.m.

Camden's favorite toy is his rattle. He loves to bang it really loud but will occasionally get a little to excited and hit himself in the face...sad.

We recently brought out his jumparoo which he also loves! He loves to bounce, pound and grab and also loves to put everything in his mouth, especially mommy's fingers!

Camden is working really hard to get his knees up under his body in preparation for crawling but isn't quite there yet. In the meantime his balance while sitting has improved. He can sit upright while supporting himself with his arms in front of him. Mommy is sure to be close by to catch him from the inevitable face plant when he gets excited and tries to lunge to grab something out of his reach.
