Lance Robert Jehlik 6.5

Hello,
It has been a busy couple of weeks and I missed sending out Lance's 6 month update so here is his 6.5 month update!
Lance celebrated his half b-day on Feb 22nd at the Adovcare Success School meeting in Fort Worth Texas. It was a fun weekend, he met so many new faces and of course everyone just loved his cute little smile and it he really liked them - he would show them his tongue! (ha,ha)
At his Six Month Check Up appointment Lance weighed in at 18 lb 10 oz and is up to 28 inches now. He is in the 75 percentile for weight and still in 90 percentile for height. He had a bunch more shots to complete his vaccine series. We had good news, no shots at the 9 month check up. Doctor said if he is still in "90%" for height at his next visit it will be "declaring" he will be a tall boy as he grows up!!! Plus with weight in 75% - a solid one too!! So we are starting to dream of him being a starting linebacker for KSU someday. (full scholarship too)
Last weekend his first two front teeth (on bottom) broke threw and luckily was "uneventful" for us. I think he has a high pain threshold like his Mom! He is rolling over both ways now, and can sit up for short periods of time on his own but still loses balance from time to time. He is getting more and more active everydy with his toys. He loves the new game "throw toys off his highchair and see mommy get it!".
Today he tried his first cheerios. At first he played with it, spit it out, but after watching me eat a few, he decided pretty good and ate one too. The Sauciers came over to visit and I think watching a four year old play was the best entertainment ever for Lance. He was very content watching a very active Rescie play!
Lance is bursting out of his 9 month PJs -lengthwise - his toes are cramped, so I am off to buy the next size - it is amazing how fast he is growing. He is so talkative and laughing so much these days especially at Daddy - his favorite toy of all!!!!
Hope all is well with you!
