Chase is now about 13 1/2 pounds and 24 inches tall (official numbers next week at his 6 mo. check up). He drinks his milk very well. He's not on solids yet, but we will probably be starting them soon. Because he is not nursing, I'm going to follow the doctor closer regarding his recommendations for cereal, food, etc. With Eli, we skipped cereal and didn't really do much other food until 12 months...not consistently anyway. Nursing was providing everything Eli needed....it's a different story with formula. : (
Chase is almost sitting up and developmentally on track according to his pediatrician. This is pretty amazing considering he has spent 6 weeks of his life lying in a hospital bed.

oh, i love these pictures. he is such a beautiful, beautiful boy, laura! :) it's so hard to believe six months has gone by already!
So Chase is drinking formula? I thought you were just pumping for him instead? If so, he'll be just fine. Hayden couldn't tolerate my breastmilk and his tummy was much happier on formula. I know you are passionate about breastfeeding, but I know all will be well! (:
Look at that big boy!! He is SO Cute! And standing!? WOW!! 6 months has gone by so Fast!
I love his precious shirt!!! Where did you get that? It makes me think that even though his heart isn't like ours, God made him wonderfully!!! TEARS!!! Haha
