6 Months!!!

Mats has been with us for half a year. He can sit up, he has just learned that if he drops something on the floor, mom or dad will pick it up (he never tires of that game), and he loves to bounce bounce bounce! He responds to his name, and to the word "NO" (usually with heart-wrenching crocodile tears), and he likes to feed himself, which usually results in Mats covered head to toe in banana or rice cereal (see exhibit A).
