Ellis Jack at 6 months:
- About 25 1/2 inches & 15 pounds
- Only 10th % in height & weight (not worried though, mommy was even smaller)
- Smiles & babbles a lot, a little flirt too
- He reached out for me the first time the other day!
- Rolling over from back to front well, but has a little trouble from front to back
- Doesn't like tummy time
- Can sit up by himself using his hands for support for about 30 seconds
- He went through a bad regression & he woke up almost every 3 hours during the night for about 6 weeks, but finally doing better 
- Sleeping in his crib every night, usually one 5-7 hour stretch   & then about a 3-4 hour stretch
- Wearing 3-6 & 6 mos clothing
- Still breast feeding, we tried rice cereal, but he didn't care for it
- Going to start trying vegetables next week, I'm going to attempt making it myself, we'll see how it goes
- He is so sweet & cuddly, but still can be a little particular about things
- Loves being outside
- Likes playing with his toys & being entertained by his friends Beau & Bax
- Grabs for things, chews on everything & drools a lot (might be teething)
- Loves bright lights & will turn his head & stare at the tv, phone, or iPad

Ellis, you're such a blessing & we love you so much!  You're the sweetest & cutest thing and you fill our lives with so much joy!
