Landon Reid-6 Months!!

It's hard to believe that my little man is six months old already!! What a blessing he is to our family, we can't imagine our life without him. He's such a little ham. He's very quick to flash his cute smile and will smile every time his big sis walks into the room. He is sitting up on his own, eating rice cereal and veggies, rolling over from back to tummy and tummy to back, grabbing for everything, and even getting mad and crying when Kennnidee takes a toy away from him. We had his six month appointment this past Friday and he now weighs 18lbs 3oz(80%)and is 28 3/4 inches(>>95%). The doctor predicted he'll be taller than his Daddy....around 6'4"!! He continues to have a big head....95%!!! Too funny!! He had to have a couple of shots and mentioned to the dr. that he had a cold and was pretty crabby. She looked in both ears and to our suprise she said he had fluid in both ears...his first ear infection. Poor Buddy. We never had to deal with an ear infection w/Kennidee b/c she's never had one and Jason and I haven't had one either. She put him on some meds and hopefully it will be cleared up soon. I also just noticed today that one of his bottom teeth is starting to pop up....poor buddy...a cold, shots, an ear infection and a tooth coming in....no wonder he is waking up now and then at night. =( Well, enjoy our pictures of our little buddy...we've certainly enjoyed taking his pictures lately...what a fun age!!

Time to eat!!!

Okay...I thought it was about time that I posted something...it seems like I never have time anymore!! Last week we started Landon on rice cereal. He just turned 6 months, so I thought it was time. He wasn't quite sure about it at first. He wrinkled up his nose and kindof gave us a blank stare, but after a couple of bites he dug right in!!! He wouldn't stop!! He loved it. A couple of days later we gave him some peas and he loved that too, he didn't even want his rice cereal after he ate peas b/c he liked it so much. Yesterday we tried squash and he gobbled that down too...our little boy apparantely likes to eat! It's so funny b/c every time I put the spoon up to his mouth, he open really wide and then tries to grab my hand and pushes it toward his mouth. He will be fun to see what other baby food he likes!! My little buddy is growing up!!!
