Jack makes this face all the time right now. He even sometimes will scrunch up his nose while doing this, and it makes him look like an old man with no teeth!
Today, Jack was so noisy in church that I had to constantly pull out new tricks to try to keep him quiet. He even screamed at the top of his lungs (playfully) as I walked out to feed him. I guess he's at the point where he needs to go to class, but I'm just in denial that we're already there! He makes all kinds of noises that crack me up. Today, I went over to him while he was laying down. He got so excited when he saw me that he jumped and snorted like a pig! I'm so curious how that's going to play out in his personality!
We started letting Jack sleep on his tummy last night and have weaned him off of the swaddle. He usually sleeps on his sides, but yesterday during nap, I put him on his tummy. He was so happy and slept so soundly that I put him like that for bedtime last night. He slept all night long! This is a huge improvement from his usual hourly to every-other-hourly wakings! I think we'll be doing this every night now!
Jack also has been rocking on his hands and knees. I think this boy is going to be in motion soon!
I took Jack to his 6 month checkup Thursday and everything went great! He is 18 lbs, 13 oz an 26.5 inches. That's 75% for weight and 45% for height. The doctor commented that he's very social and strong, and laughed at his enormous thighs and rear-end. He said that it almost looks like his has two different bodies put together at the waist! I totally agree and have thought that before!
Jack so far has like every new food! We think he's allergic to avacado, so we're stopping that one. This week we're doing pears, which has helped with his constipation. My mom got me a Happy Baby Food Grinder (I linked it) that she used when we were kids, and I love it! She found it on EBay, and I highly recommend it!
Jack is getting to be even more of a mama's boy! He started lunging for me this week and just puts his head onto me when he misses me and I pick him up. This just makes my heart so happy!

What a precious little boy! I can't believe he's so old already. Seems like he was just born!
