half birthday and teeth!

Colson turned 6 months old on September 10! Too bad he couldn't have any birthday cake yet ... At his 6 month check-up he weighed in at 20lbs and 1/2 an ounce, still in the 90 percentile and 27.5" tall, still in the 90 percentile and his head size is still in the 50 percentile. We've been continuing with the solids - so far he's had rice cereal, banana, avocado, and sweet potatoes today. And just Friday one of his lower teeth began to come in. It was so sharp - poor guy was miserable that day.

too cool

Nick's mom went to Florida earlier in August and brought this shirt back for Colson ... it's labeled 18 months! I thought his growth was starting to slow down seeing as he spent a good 4-5 weeks in the 18 pound range. Before that I was weighing him every week and he was gaining a pound about every couple of weeks. Well, he's now 20 pounds -- so he flew through 19 and has broken through 20. I never thought that the 12 month clothes we got as gifts earlier would fit him now!
