6 months old

Alex and Aiden turned 6 months on Tuesday. They are now both turning over. Both are trying to sit, but cannot sit well unassisted.

Here are some of the milestones for 6 months:

1. Should be able to do:

• Keep head level when pulled to sitting (both)
• vowel-consonant combinations (Aiden a little)

2. Will probably be able to do:

• bear some weight on legs (Aiden, Alex a little)
• sit without support (neither)

3. May possibly be able to do:

• stand holding on to someone or something (neither)
• feed self a cracker (neither)
• object if you take a toy away (neither)
• look for dropped object (neither)
• pass object from on hand to another (neither)
• turn in direction of a voice(both to familiar voices)
  

They have mastered everything they should have by 5 months which is where they should be adjusted age. They are enjoying fruits and veggies and are now eating meats. We go to the doctor on Friday for their 6 month check-up and shots (yeah).
