You are now 6 months old! Wow! 1/2 way to one! You have changed my life in the sweetest way... I just simply cannot imagine my life without you. You bring me so much joy every day, I cannot even put it into words! Here are some updates from this past month!
You are sitting up even better for longer periods of time and you are starting to scoot a bit. You shove your nose into the ground and do a body roll while shuffling those knees of yours to get where you want to go. You also roll around front to back and back to front like a pro so I have to be very careful where I put you!
You love to play with toys and love to explore everything with your hands and mouth. You play quite contentedly by yourself... sometimes up to 45 minutes at a time! You especially love your exersaucer and iced teething rings.
You started eating mum-mums this month! These are just little crackers that you can hold on to that dissolve in your mouth. We mostly give them to you to keep you occupied while we all eat dinner! You also sat in Kaelyn's high chair for the first time! You mostly played with toys in there but I'm pretty sure a little avocado made it into your mouth as well!
You are a biiiiig boy, still in the 90th ish percentile for weight now weighing in around 21 pounds! Your 2.5 year old sister weighs 26 pounds... you are going to pass her up in no time! Our baby swing maxes out at 25 pounds which is a bummer for mommy and daddy because you love your swing!
Mama just put you on a nap schedule this past week... you have been doing really well sleeping from about 8:45-10:45am and 1-2:15/2:30ish this whole week! That means mama has a predictable time that she knows she can get a few things done. Wahoooooo! Of course Kaelyn decided she wanted to use the potty this week as well, so mama's not really getting anything actually done around the house... but that is neither here nor there... we are working on eating and growing at this point! Clean clothes and dishes are a luxury right!? ;-)
You are also much more verbal now... your favorite babble syllable is "da da da da da da da da da!" It was Kaelyn's first word too... I will try not to have hurt feelings. ;-)
We are still waiting for your first tooth to make it's appearance! Still drooling and chewing up a storm!
You are sleeping much better most nights.... going to bed around 7 and only waking 2-3 times for little snacks. You usually go back down pretty easily most nights and then like to wake up around 6. Some days you decide 4:30 is more fun, but Daddy usually gets up with you then for some quality man time before he has to go to work.
You continue to be a very happy and easy going baby much to mama's delight! You smile and giggle incredibly easily and love to snuggle. You are such a lovable little dude!!! Okay... big little dude. ;-)
