Happy 6 month - half year birthday son! We can't believe half a year has already flown by, and our little guy is already progressing into a little man. He weighs in at 14 lbs 5 oz, and 25" long. Last month we took a road trip to Cambria to spend time with Patty and Alexis (and camped one night!) and then went camping in Mendocino for two nights. Lots of exciting adventures!
In the past month Alpin has spent a good amount of time on his hands and knees, rocking back and forth trying to get up momentum to crawl. He has also semi-mastered sitting - he still will fall over if he looks up to far or gets excited about something. Even without crawling he is fully mobile on the floor, scooting and rotating and rolling. He loves standing up and bouncing on his legs, too. Long story short- he's a very active baby.
We introduced rice cereal at 5 months, and Alpin eats it at daycare every day. in the past month he has also had bananas, avocado and carrots. He liked them all, which isn't a surprise since he's such a little piggy. He's teething, drooling and chewing on anything he can get his hands on.
Alpin has such a sweet personality, very chill and mellow, adapting easily to different crowds or different places. He smiles all the time, giggles when Andy gives him raspberries, and talks up a storm. He loves being sung to, and if he's ever super upset we know we can sing him Yellow Submarine and all will be OK.
He also loves other little kids, and will watch them whenever they are around. New to the crew is baby Carson Bidwell Cambra, born on July 2 (Leann's birthday!), Hunter and Jeff's newborn boy. Alpin is so lucky to have so many baby boys his age in our lives.
