The Sixth Month Pt. 2

Continued from The Sixth Month Pt.1

By the end of this month your baby...

...may possibly be able to:
Stand holding onto someone or something - Check, he's still wobbly when he's holding on to anything but our hands.

Feed self a cracker - Check, just substitute mum mum for cracker

Object if you take toy away - I'm not sure, he just finds something else to do if we take a toy away.

Work to get a toy our of reach - Check

Pass a cube or other object from one hand to another - Check

Look for a dropped object - Check, he throws everything off his exersaucer.

Rake a raisin and pick it up in fist - Check, except replace raisin with Cheerio

Turn in the direction of a voice - Check, for like a hundred years.

Babble, combining vowel consonant sounds - No, he prefers to screech and squeal.

...may even be able to
Pull up to standing position from sitting - Not without a bunch of help, he tries though.

Get into a sitting position from tummy - Nope

Pick up tiny object with any part of thumb and finger - Check, but not regularly

Say Mama or Dada indiscriminately - I've heard him say "mum", but unfortunately not yet!

So it looks like he's pretty on par, and we have many things to practice for the end of the month.

  1. Wait till he does the "mom" and "dad". I thought Dustin was going to flip his lid the first time Haven reached for him saying "dad dad dad".
