Halfling

Charles turned 6 months! Time flies like bananas, as the saying goes. Or peas, in this picture, but I don't think there are flies in these peas.


It's exciting to see each stage of infancy develop into the next; I usually focus so much on what is happening in the moment and what is coming ahead that I don't think about the sweet tiny baby that Charles was at first and is gradually growing out of. I would grieve the time passing if I wasn't planning on having more children, because having a tiny cuddly darling of our own has been one of my most joyous experiences and a few months would be far too short to enjoy it. We'll just keep having children until I can't anymore, and then we'll adopt. Then we'll keep adopting children until we have grandchildren. :) Or maybe we'll get tired of it at some point, who knows. All I know right now is that I love it.

He now weighs 16 lb 5 oz (26th %tile) and is 27 inches long (69th %tile).

Charles pulls himself around like a regular little caterpillar, and can go all kinds of places if I'm not watching carefully. Is it ok for babies to bonk their heads against walls and furniture? Do you line everything with foam? It always makes me so sad.

Sit back and relax for some adventure! I wanted to put hobbit music in the background, but didn't, so you can imagine it.
