Emmett's Stats

Wishing you a belated Merry Christmas!  Someday I will post pics of Emmett's first Christmas, but the way things go around here, it might be springtime when that finally happens!

Emmett had his 6 month checkup (about 1 week before he actually hits the 6 month mark) and it turns out he is one solid boy, just as we suspected! 
Height: 27"
Weight: 17 lb 11 oz (holy cow)

Emmett is hitting some milestones too!  At 5 1/2 months he discovered that he can army crawl.  Now he is all over the living room floor.  He can move really fast if he is after something that motivates him, like the dog's Kong.  Greg discovered last night that if he says, "Come here, Emmett," that Emmett will army crawl over to him and up into his lap.  Pretty darn cute. 

His big accomplishment this week is spending a lot of time rocking back and forth on his hands and knees.  Shouldn't we figure out sitting before we start to crawl?  How can my baby be growing up so fast? 

Having a baby on the go makes me a little nervous this time around.  The kids have a lot of toys with little pieces and I am constantly finding small objects on the living room floor.  We'll have to keep working on that and keep a close eye on Emmett!
