Not any taller

Jude had his 6th month wellness check up today, which is a fancy way of saying they need to give him shots and check his height and weight. He gained a pound plus in the last two months, so he is at 16 lbs and 4 ounces. He is still very skinny for his age, but if you ever watch him for about 10 minutes he will make you tired from all of his jumping around. It is probably good that he went up in weight and not height to build some meat on those bones. It also helps mommy and daddy feel like they are not going to be midgets in there own family.

One more little update about Jude is that he is starting to learn to pull himself up to stand. It just happened for the first time last night. I put him on the floor and he was on his hands and knees, and then when I looked back down at him he had both of his hands on the couch and was on his knees, and then when I looked back again he was standing trying to reach to get mommy's attention. Roger was in disbelief and so we put Jude back down, and watched him go from his knees to standing. He is still a very wobbly standing, but he is so proud that he is standing.

Mommy's little boy is growing up really fast. :-( And yet I am so proud of everything he does all the time! And so is Roger!!
