How do you keep a 6 month old occupied?

Elijah is just so funny. He has a very short attention span but when he finds something that he likes he will stay occupied with it for about 20 minutes. That's 20 minutes that I'm running around trying to get the most I can possibly get done in the shortest amount of time. Here Elijah is chewing on a bow while I'm wrapping presents. I know...not the best thing for him to chew on but it crinkled, was sparkly, easy to handle...he loved it. Who was I to interfere...at least until it looked like he might get a piece of it off because he had gummed it so much. The other picture is of him chewing on his pacifier...backwards. He no longer can chew on just the nipple part. He also has to chew on the back too. Crazy kid. That's all for now!
