6 months!

Ian had his 6 month check up today and all went well -the doctor was amazed at how advanced he is.....crawls, sits, rolls...you name he will find a way to do it.

I have been working with him lately on trying to get him to say "Ma ma." Well today Ian said his very first word. I even have witnesses. The doctor had just come in the room and my mom was currently holding Ian (Tim work another grave last night), when the doctor sat down I reached over to hold Ian and he said "Ma ma." Clear as could be -even the doctor was taken back. We were all a little surprised but amazed.

All in all the appointment went really well and it was nice to have grandma's help since we were there for 2 hours!!! Ian is now moving to 2 naps a day because he has become a night owl and lately does not want to go to sleep until midnight he just wants to play. Although I must admit he is extremely happy at this time (if he is not screaming in his crib) but it doesn't work well when I have to be up at 6 am for work. We are hoping for an 8 o'clock bedtime :)

I'm pretty sure it was "Grand - Pa" not "Ma - Ma". Glad he is doing so well!!!

6 months went way fast. He's a handsome, smart guy. Your post about Lisa & Ragnar made me pretty sad. Are you guys hanging in there? I bet it's different and a little rough without them.

Of course he is advanced, he has a teacher for a mother! Lucky guy.
