Caleb's 6 month check up

Today I took both boys in for their check-ups.
Parker had his 4 year old exam and weighs 39 lbs. with a height of 41" tall. He didn't like having to go the bathroom in the cup and his finger pricked. He is the drama king of this and so it was tough to manage him in this state.
Caleb had his 6 month exam and he is really doing well. He weighs 20 lbs. 10 oz. and is 28" long. I thought for sure he was 21 lbs. since my arm has been killing me for the last few weeks. He is getting so big and so happy. He cried a little bit for the blood prick and then only when the needles were put into his thighs. He recovers so much better than Parker.
Milestones for Caleb, he is right on schedule. Although he has only rolled over once for us this week (from tummy to back) he can sit up really well. The doctor said that his sitting up is beyond a 6 months old ablility, so not to worry about the rolling over. Some children just skip the milestones and go onto other ones. Here is Caleb in his walker and he loves it. I have found him in the dining room this week pulling on this christmas catcus and tugging at the Christmas in this room.
He is getting so grown up in the highchair and loves to eat table food.
Here is a preview of what our Christmas card might look like this year. This is the real Christmas tree in our living room. We have 7 trees around the house along with other decorations in every room and outside. We just love this time of year with all the Christmas music, lights and decorations.
