Superbowl Sunday
Apparently Carter didn't get the memo that the 49er's weren't in the superbowl;
It was still a great game though. I'm glad that the Saints won, they played a great game.
Carter got to try prunes for the first time yesterday. I thought for sure he wouldn't like them but he actually really enjoyed them. Of course he loves to make a mess while he eats and of course before I cleaned him up I had to take a picture; so here you go
I also got another picture of his teeth but you still can't see them really well;
Both teeth have broke through now. They're so cute! The one on the left came up first so it's further out.
Today Carter is 7 months and 1 week old

Carter's 7 month appointment
Last Monday we had Carter's 7 month appointment. It went well, here are his stats'
Weight: 14 lbs 14 oz (up 8 oz from 6 months)
Height: 25 3/4" (up 1/2" from 6 months)
Head: 60th percentile
Carter is doing great. He's getting his second tooth in now. Soon he'll have his two middle bottom teeth, that will look so cute. I'll try and get a picture. I also need to take his 7 month pictures. Wow, I'm behind.
That's about all of an update I have for you now. I'll post some more pictures as soon as I can.

I see a tooth coming in
I just spotted it tonight...a white spot on his lower gums. I'm 99% sure that it's a tooth coming. What else could it be? I figured it was about time, I mean he's almost 7 months.
Grant took Carter to the doctor yesterday because he had a bad cough and since he's had pneumonia before we just wanted to make extra sure he wasn't getting it again. That and he woke up with his eye red, swollen and covered in gunk. It looked like he had pink eye. Luckily, it's not pneumonia, just a cold, and it's not pink eye. But while he was there they weighed him and they weren't too happy with his weight gain. He only gained 6 oz in almost a month. And he was already in the 5th percentile to begin with. So we were told to stop all foods and just feed him formula. And lots of it. He's been on the Zantac for almost a month now and we've noticed a huge difference. He hardly spits up anymore, I can't figure out why he's no gaining weight.
On another note, Carter just LOVES his bouncy. I mean he can bounce for days. I captured several videos of him bouncing. Here's one of them;
Carter has his next appointment on Monday so I'll have more updates (along with his 7 month pictures) then.
Today Carter is 6 months and 4 weeks old

My sweet baby boy
My Mom got Carter the cutest little stuffed car for Christmas. It's made for him to sit in and there's a little mirror, a horn that honks, colored lights that light up and play a tune and a key that you can turn and make the sound of a starting car. I put him in it last night and he was having a ball.
He's getting so big! Yesterday when I went to pick him up from day care I swear it looked like he gained a couple of pounds. His face just looked chubbier. And even today I was thinking the same thing. Only 3 1/2 more weeks until his next appt and I can see how much he weighs.
The last few days he's been sleeping great. He's going to bed between 6:45-7:30 and sleeping until it's time for him to get up. He's also been going to sleep quicker. I think he's going through a growing spurt.
Today Carter is 6 months 1 week and 1 day old

6 months old
Carter turned 6 months old on Thursday (new years eve). I can't believe he's getting so big. Here's his stats from his 6 month appt.;
Weight: 14 lbs 6 oz (5th %tile)
Height: 25 1/2" (18 %tile)
Head: 80th %tile
He gained 1 pound and grew 1 inch in a month. His pedi is happy about his height but still a little concerned about his weight. He was closer to the 20 %tile before he had pneumonia about 3 months ago. He still spits up a lot so the pedi (along with the babysitter and I) think that may be contributing to his lack of weight gain. The pedi prescribed an antacid to hopefully help keep his food down. We'll try it out for a month to see if it helps. She said at most he'd have to stay on it for 3 months or so. I'm going to pick up the prescription today.
Carter is at such a fun age. I love the age he's at right now, it's my favorite of them all so far. He's so playful and curious. He's always learning something new and always making Grant and I laugh.
