6 month Appt

Kinnick had his 6 month appt on Monday and I can't believe how big he is getting. Dr. Kelli Wallace was home with sick kids so we saw her husband Dr. Lincoln Wallace instead. He said Kinnick was a very healthy specimen:) He is in the 58th percentile for weight at 17 lbs and 13 oz. He is very sturdy! Dr. Wallace told us that we can pretty much give him anything now that he has hit the 6 month mark so we went to Target and bought snacks right away. He does a pretty good job picking up the little puffs but then they stick to his hand so he has a hard time getting them into his mouth.




His new accomplishment is army crawling for a couple weeks now and is beginning to get into everything. When we were at grandma's over the weekend he even managed to knock over one of her plants and when I found him he had leaves in his mouth. Aaron's parents say it is only a glimpse of what is to come because Aaron was a very busy little boy. I am really enjoying this age because I am able to do more things with him. Today we went to the park with Gracie and Kinnick enjoyed being pushed in the swing. We also went for a walk at Olson Park but Kinnick really didn't care about all the animals. It is also cute to see his relationship with the dogs. He holds his hands out for Gabby and will crawl like crazy to get at a wagging tail. Squirt is the only one that kind of avoids Kinnick but gives in occasionally.

I also wanted to mention that I am very proud of my sisters! Alisa graduated this past weekend and will be attending Morningside in Sioux City in the fall. She plans to major in Mass Communications and play softball as well. Andrea got the new at Alisa's graduation party that she is going to state for track. She throws shot put and just made the cut off. She is only a freshmen so she is super excited.
