Adrian is 6 months old!!

Sunday, Adrian turned 6 months old.  Half a year already! I can't believe it. Like last month (for mostly my own purposes), I put the milestones he's reached = here they are again for this month!
  • Baby can now hold his head steady. - Yes, Adrian has been able to do this for months now!
  • He can hold and drink from a cup or bottle. He loves his sippy cup and now has complete control of his bottle as well.
  • He rolls both ways. He rolls all over the place! He's so funny and so fast. He will be crawling any day now!
  • Baby is able to transfer objects from hand to hand. He seems so proud of the control he has over his hands now. He definitely has very good control of them.
  • He may be able to "stand" (support weight on his legs) when you hold him on your lap. Anyone who knows Adrian knows this is his favorite thing! He insists on standing, and can stand by himself now when supported against something.
  • Can probably sit up for a short period of time, supporting himself with his hands. He can completely sit up unsupported for long periods of time.
  • Baby may begin to push up on his hands and knees or drag himself forward; a few kids perfect the art of crawling this month. He's not crawling, but definitely trying!
  • He can feed himself large finger foods (like a baby biscuit). Yes he loves his baby mum mums!
  • Baby recognizes the difference between his parents and others; stranger anxiety may begin. Yes, although he hasn't met a stranger yet :) He gets very excited when either Nick or I walk into the room.
  • He mimics facial expression and sounds. Oh my goodness we have had so much fun with this! He is currently fascinated with the clicking sounds we can make with our tongues.
  • Turns his head toward a voice or a sound. Yes
  • Recognizes and responds to his own name. Yes
  • Is able to participate in a game of peekaboo. Yes
  • Begins to babble. Yes he talks, laughs, and screams and squeals all the time!
He can also pull up on things to a certain extent and LOVES dancing. He is so funny!

Here's a video of him (and daddy) being silly:
