6 Months...No Way!

On November 20th, our sweet baby boy turned 6 months and since then he has been quite the man on the move! We went to the doctor and he weighed 16 pounds 3 oz (25%) and was 26.75 inches long (70%). I think he is trending to be tall and lean like his daddy. Our poor baby had to get shots and we are going back tomorrow to get his flu shot! So sad; he hates them and I hate them too!





So, what has he been doing. The months are really starting to blend together so I am going try my best to remember what all has happened.
This is why he cannot sleep in his rock n play anymore

LOVE lunch time
  • Eats 5 times a day (5-7 ounces)
  • Still a pretty bad napper and WAS a good sleeper!
  • He transitioned from his rock n play to the play pen but still naps in his crib. You may ask why is your child not in his crib...well bc we are ALWAYS on the move. We moved from Chicago to Houston when he was 3 and half weeks old, came back to Chicago when he was 4 months old, were in Houston for a week and half over Thanksgiving and now will be back in Texas for 3 weeks over the holidays... So, we have had to keep his beds constant, even though his rooms are different. All in all, I would say he is a VERY good traveler and great baby for all of the shuffle in his life. I am sure he will just be getting settled in Chicago when we pick up and move back to Texas permanently.
  • He sort of crawls - he does the typical crawl about 3-4 knee/arm moves and then army crawls and then goes back to crawling. 
  • Sits up by himself
  • Pulls up on things - he thinks he is such a big boy that he can stand up in his crib. Speaking of, we put his bumpers back up bc he has fallen so many times and hit his head. I swear it does not even phase him, but it scares me!
  • LOVES walks - we try to take them everyday, weather pending
  • Sleeping - you go to bed around 730-8 and wake up between 7-8 (waking up 3-4 times a night right now, but we are letting you put/cry yourself back to sleep)
  • Flirt, flirt flirt - in crowds he loves to smile at people
  • babbles - no dada's, lots of hehe and goga and ewwe's
  • Eat three times a day. Love green foods! You are like your mama, there is not a veggie I don't like:)
  • Love puffs
  • Love tags...I really need to cut them off of everything!
You are still changing so much on a weekly basis! It is so fun to see you grow and we love love being your parents!

xxoo,
Tiff
