6 months

Yesterday, June 20th, Shosei turned 6 months old.  Last week, he did his first roll over and now does it proudly.  He like to roll from his back to his right side onto his tummy.  At 6 months, he conveys so much character and it is a real delight for us to see his growth everyday. 

Likes:  He likes it when we blow in his face, he likes to be held, he likes it when we thrill him by lifting him up high.  He likes his stroller rides, he likes it when we clap our hands, he likes toys that play music. 
Dislikes: He doesn't like to be left alone in the room, he doesn't like to play by himself very much( for a long time), he doesn't like to be spooked(even when we don't mean to)

 What puts him to sleep: Watching me hang the laundry outside or watching me fold the laundry inside, chanting in a low voice while rocking him. 

Things he is interested in: our cellphones, the tv remote control

Talents: Giggling out loud and making us laugh even more.

Happy 6 months, Shosei! Let's start on baby food soon! Rice porridge first!
