Carter @ 6 Months: Happy 1/2 Birthday!

Seriously...when did this happen? I can't even believe he is 6 months old! Lately I have been getting super sentimental about them growing up so fast, savoring moments, and thinking of how I can remember then. It's exhausting! Haha.=) I keep figuring up in my head how much longer I have with both of them before they go on missions and move out of my home and Ryan keeps having to tell me to stop it! Haha. Anyway...enough of that. Carter, aka "Carter-Man", is such a ball of sunshine in our lives. Here are a few things he is doing at 6 months. 

• He is CRAWLING! Started about a week ago but crawling he is. He is still not the most coordinated at it but he is started to go everywhere. 
• He has lost most of his dark hair and it seems to be an auburn brown that is coming in. YAY! =) Maybe one of my children will have my hair color.
• His eyes are still blue and I think they are going to be staying that way. =)
• He loves doing "downward dog" yoga pose. Its the cutest thing in the world when his butt goes up in the air.
• He can go in a full circle rolling someone.
• He is teething and wants to naw on everything.
• He loves to chew on his feet.
• He thinks his brother Mavrick is the funniest thing in the world. I don't think anyone can make him laugh more than Mavrick.
• He is an insta-smiler. You look at him and he instantly starts smiling and charming you to pick him up.
• He is such a social butterfly. He loves being in on the action and is very aware of people. Kinda funny how young that stuff starts.
• He is starting to eat real food. So far he likes peas, sweet potatoes, quinoa, bananas, and applesauce. He is not the best at keeping it in his mouth but we will get there. =)
• Chatters a lot like he has something to say. 
• He loves to pull hair! Makes me want to cut it all off!
• He loves to scratch and try to pull the skin off your face. No matter how short I cut his nails.
• He still nurses about 4-5 times a day but I am starting to ween him to formula. So far the transition has been pretty easy.
• He weighs about 18 pounds and at 5 months he was 26 inches long. Not exactly sure what he is now.
• He sleep like a champ most of the time. He still takes about 3 naps a day and one of them will be for about an 1 1/2 hours and the others about 45 - 60 min.
