6 months!

eat... xavier started to experiment with new foods this week. he got his rice cereal down and loves it, so we decided to try out some fruit and veggies. he is in love with it all! so far he has tried bananas, apples, and squash.

sleep...xavier had a rough week a couple weeks ago where he didn't want to sleep in his crib and was up in the middle of the night a lot. last night, he decided he need to wake up at 2:30 and play for an hour. not my idea of a fun night. for the most part though, he sleeps from 7pm to 6am. he has started to sleep with his butt up in the air... so cute! :)

play... xavier can sit up for long periods of time by himself. he loves to pull things out and play with them. he also loves to examine things for long periods of time. i think he will be crawling soon. 

wear...xavier is wearing 12-18 month clothing, but can still squeeze into 9 month size clothing. he is growing fast! 

(we go to the dr. on thursday so i will be sure to update his weight/height then!)

pumpkin carving

our little pumpkin helped carve some pumpkins on saturday in celebration of his 6 month birthday and halloween! miss sarah carved an R and i carved an X. Tony went all out and carved a face and a dog (i'll have to snap some pictures). xavier loved his first of many pumpkin carving experiences. next year he'll be sure to get in on the fun.
