What's new with Ridge Kwade?: 6 Months

Ridge is now 6 months old. He weighed 19 lbs 13 0z (75th - 90th %ile) and was 29 inches long (90th %ile) at his 6-month check-up. He is sitting up independently, 'inch-worming', scooting when sitting up on his bottom, and doing lots of babbling and 'vocalizing' (a.k.a. screaming just to hear himself scream). Fun! ha! He's a really good eater - he eats rice cereal and fruit (banana or pear) in the morning and rice cereal and veggie (carrot, sweet potato or squash) in the evenings. We just added lunch this week (a veggie and a fruit). I am still making all his solids in the Beaba cooker -- if you don't have one, I highly recommend it. It's a breeze to make homemade baby food! Also, Ridge has his first tooth!! I found it on Thanksgiving day while we were still at the table. Exciting! I couldn't get a picture of it though -- he sticks his tongue out when I try to feel it and covers it up. I'll work on it though!
