Ready, Set...

McKay will be 6 months old tomorrow. I have never met a kid who wants to be mobile as much as he does!
Baby Stats:
McKay is now a whopping 19 lbs.
He absolutely HATES rice cereal.
He absolutely LOVES baby crackers and Gerber rice puffs.
He likes to wake me up every two hours at night still (we're working on that).
He will wake up at 11:00pm to eat whether or not he went down at 9pm for his evening nap or 10:30pm. Makes no difference.
He is extremely dexterous with his walker. He can maneuver that puppy around chairs, under the table and out the other side, around corners, through doorways, and get it turned around inside the limited space of our bathroom. The only hold up is the lip up onto the living room carpet.
He can sit up now unassisted, just don't get him too excited or he will fall over backwards with all of the wiggling.
He is SO close to crawling! He has been getting up on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth for a couple of weeks now. This last week he has begun pushing up onto his feet and then walking them in until they almost touch his hands. He looks like maybe he will just stand up and walk one of these days.

 He is a mama'a boy. Joe hates babysitting because McKay only lasts about 15 minutes before he begins to howl for his mama. He's not hungry, not wet, no tummy ache. Just misses little ol' me. Don't get me wrong though, he definitely loves his daddy, he just doesn't know what to do yet without mama.
