Spencer is doing well. He smiles a lot, but as soon as the flash goes off on the camera, he tends to scowl. This photo is the exception. Spencer weighed nearly 16 lbs. at his six-month check up which is normal. His pediatrician had recommended starting him on rice cereal, but he never took to it. Finally we gave up and moved on to pureed carrots. He loved them! But what a mess he made of his clothes -- despite wearing a bib! Later that week he tried peas and sweet potatoes with at least as much enthusiasm. He gets very excited when he sees his special spoon with the extra long handle because he anticipates his delicious meal. He doesn't have any teeth yet, but he checks for them often with his fingers. He also enjoys playing with his toes. He is a special boy who is loved by all. And I do mean ALL. :)
