Monotone square-root recursion limit

Let {an}n≥1\{a_n\}_{n\ge1} be a sequence of real numbers such that a1=6a_1 = \sqrt{6} and an+1=6+ana_{n+1} = \sqrt{6 + a_n} for n≥1n \ge 1. Consider the following statements: (I) {an}n≥1\{a_n\}_{n\ge1} is an increasing sequence. (II) lim⁡n→∞an=2\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n = 2. Which of the above statements is/are true?
