Knox Sterling: 6 Months Old!

I can't believe this sweet thing is 6 months old! Time has flown, and we continue to feel incredibly blessed to have this little guy.

We were in Arizona for the last week {trip update next!}, and every time someone was around him, I got the same question: "Is he ALWAYS this good?" Yes, yes he is! 

The little guy's first tooth started to pop through three days before our trip. The second tooth started to cut while in Arizona, and even though he was teething {which brought on a little congestion}, this guy was a happy trooper, and pretty much himself the entire trip. He is full of smiles and giggles all day long. Here are a few things:

*28.5 inches long (96th percentile: tall boy!)
*18.2 lbs (63rd percentile)
*Still a cuddle bug! He falls asleep with a cuddle to the chest, and loves snuggling cheek to cheek.
*LOVING his hands. He really discovered them and started to use them several weeks ago, and reaches for everything these days.
*His favorite toy is my pink phone case. If you take it away from him, he throws a fit! Pretty much the only thing that can send him into a fit.
*Great eater. He is trying to reach for the spoon now.
*Was sleeping fabulously until he started teething. 
*Continues to accompany me to the Zumba classes I teach. He sits there in his car seat kicking his legs to the beat. He usually falls asleep the last 15 minutes. He's big enough for the nursery at the gym (actually, he technically was 2 months ago), so I may stick him in there in the near future. He still does so good with me, so I haven't felt the need to do so yet.
*And he's JUST ABOUT CRAWLING!! He rolls and scoots ALL over the place in a matter of seconds. He is SOOO close to crawling. He has the rocking motion down, but then changes it into a scoot at the last minute. I expect a crawling baby within days. 

While in Arizona, I took his 6 month portraits at an awesome park just by my mom's house. I managed to get a few with my mom, and she snapped a few of me.

Enjoy!
