Griffin at 6 months

Wowza Griffin is such an easy going, good baby.  Crying is rarely his thing and even a stranger could put a smile on his face!

At 6 months Griffin:
Get on his hands and knees and push up on his tippy toes.  No crawling yet, but so close!
Sleeps 11-12 hours at night.
Puts himself to sleep.
Prefers to be on his belly and will just lay on the floor with his thumb in his mouth when he's sleepy.
Loves to play with toys on the floor.
Just likes being on the floor over any other place!
Sits unsupported for a moment.
Eats oatmeal cereal and baby food.
Constantly has his thumb in his mouth!
Admires his brother.
Giggles at animals, like dogs and cats.
Is in the 17th percentile for weight (almost 16 lbs) and 36th percentile for height, even though he doesn't look that little to me.

 

Snow!

A few weeks ago we woke up to a few good inches of snow.  As Layton got up I showed him the snow out his window.  He got very excited and ran out into the living room to get a better look.  He said, "Oh mom, it looks so beautiful!"  "Should we get our snow stuff on?"  "We need to go snowmobiling!"

We spent a good half an hour getting on his snow gear as it was quite chilly outside; all for a short trip outside and back in again.  (You know how that goes.)
