Kellen at Six Months

Kellen (or should I say Butterball), tipped the scales at 20 pounds at his six month appointment. He is 27.5 inches long, and his head is 45 centimeters. All three categories put Kellen in the 90th percentile. Yes, we have a big boy on our hands!! He had four shots this time, and took them very well. He had two injections on each leg & when the doctor switched to the other leg, Kellen was back to smiling. He's a happy guy!!

Kellen also had his first cold last week! It was a real mild cold, but it included a runny nose, sneezing, a slight cough, and lethargy. He was still a happy guy though. He would sneeze, snot would go a-flyin', and he would just look at you with these half open eyes and smile. It was so sad, yet cute at the same time.

Kellen is also starting solid foods now!! YUMMY!!! He has tried rice cereal, bananas, apples, peas and sweet potatoes. Guess what his favorites are so far? The peas & sweet potatoes!! He hated the banana and apple. I'll keep trying those, he'll come to love them, I know it. Here are a few pics of him eating rice cereal for the first time. Such a silly boy!
