Six Months

Mr. Derek Scott is now six months old. Time is flying by with this little one. It seems to me like the first 3 months with Derek were slow and snuggly and sweet and once he hit four months, it's like time started to fly! We are loving this stage with our little man. This is honestly my favorite baby stage! He is such a sweet baby with the cutest personality. His smile can light up a room full of people and his dimples are still to die for! He is a social butterfly and as long as people are nearby he is a happy camper.  Here are some milestones:

He can sit up independently
Rolls from back to tummy AND tummy to back
No teeth yet
Weighs 13.9 lbs
Length is 27 inches (I think)
He is self soothing and putting himself to sleep in his crib
Starting to sleep longer stretches and hopefully sleep through the night soon

He is still on the small side. He is in the less than 1 percentile, but all our babies are small and he is developing as he should and is so strong! Seriously, from the beginning this boy has been a strong one. We have no worries whatsoever with him. He is loving solid foods and now that he is fully formula fed he is growing and filling out much more. For some reason I only seem to produce "diet milk" and honestly, he wasn't great at nursing either. It was a recipe for disaster, but I made it to 6 months and I'm proud I was able to do that, but formula is honestly what is best for my babies.
Here's to another month with "little brother". We are quite smitten and can't wait to see what's up next!
