Updates updates updates

Caleb is now almost 6 months old, and weighs almost 8kg... feels really solid, can almost sit up on his own and is starting to get into push-up positions (he is almost ready to crawl).
He knows what he wants and tries hard to get it... he stretches for it, tries to crawl, rolls towards it, and ultimately demands for it if he still can't get it.
He is starting on semi-solids... he knows when he is about to be fed, gets really excited about it, yells if he is not fed fast enough, gobbles everything up and demands for more (explains the fleshy cheeks and thunder thighs!)
He is really quite fun to play with now... responds to your coaxing and promptings, makes noise and laughs out loud, looks inquisitively at stuff, and plants a big wide smile when he sees you laughing and smiling at him.
He has two very sharp lower front teeth... he has already left a permanent mark on my thumb, the meat on your shoulders gives the most succulent bounce that satisfies his gum itch, anything and everything is a teether... can't imagine when the upper teeth comes.
We thank God for such a happy, cute and healthy boy... people who know me will know that his good looks is a real blessing from God :) I do pray too that if the next child is a girl, that she looks like her mum, hehe...
