Well, we're about a week and a half away from Carter's 6 month mark and I am just now getting around to his 5 month post. Oops!
This picture is from his 5 month birthday though. :)
No well baby check for 5 months, so no height and weight stats. We did see the dr. though. We were worried about food allergies, since his cheeks were red and had a raised rash, but turns out he just has eczema.
Milestones
- Sat on your own, without assistance from us (used your arms to support yourself), right before Halloween
- You're keeping your hands open, instead of clinched in tight little fists.
- You celebrated your first Halloween! You dressed up as a puppy and helped answer the door for the two trick or treaters we had.
- You ate your first purees. We tried avocado first, but you weren't a fan. I think that's because I didn't get it thin enough and you weren't so sure what to do. We bought some pouches of apples and bananas and tried again, and you loved it! You've had avocado, apples, bananas, mango, and carrots, and have loved them all, except for the avo, which we will try again soon.
And an outtake. :) hahahahaha!
