We visited the nurse practitioner today, and Ronan stands 25.75" tall and weighs 13lb 2oz! Still small, but growing proportionately. She suggested we start introducing solid foods, and wants to weigh him again in a month to make sure he's still gaining.
He's sleeping well, and sleeps best in his crib. He still wakes up once or twice during the night, but we're hoping that adding some food into his diet will help him stay full and sleep though!
Our days are filled with more and more fun! We've been taking more walks, reading more books (he loves Doggies by Sandra Boynton), and jumping in his jumperoo! He is becoming more and more proficient at grabbing toys and blankets, and of course everything goes right into his mouth. We thought he'd started teething a month or so ago, but no teeth yet. He gnaws on anything he can find - our fingers are one of his favorites.
Ronan now rolls like crazy, and almost prefers to spend time on his tummy. I know he's going to be crawling before we know it... but I'm not encouraging it at all!!!
Ronan recently took his first plane trip to meet his cousins in Virginia. He did so well on the plane and loved meeting Zach and Connor. He liked watching how active they are and having some buddies to play with. :) I made a separate blog entry with some pictures from that trip.
Ronan and Mommy are starting a Kindermusik Sign & Sing class soon, where we'll learn some basic sign language and songs to sing together! We plan to learn some helpful signs and use them with Ronan so he can learn to communicate with us before he can talk.
These last 6 months have flown by, and we know the next 6 will, as well. Enjoy some pictures of a Ronan from today!
