my sweet baby boy,
I
say baby lightly because this month more than ever before you have
transformed from this little itty bitty infant that was happy to sleep
most of the day and eat the other part to this amazing little boy full
of personality and wants and desires...all in like the blink of an eye.
These 6 months have absolutely flown bye, really where did they go??
You
weigh 18 pounds and are 27 inches long (will fill in the blanks on
monday when we go to the doc). You are in size 3 diapers, perfect fit
for now. You have been on formula and rice cereal from time to time but
you hate it so I don't force the issue. You had some watermelon this
month to go along with your chocolate and frozen yogurt from months
past. I am so excited for you to start eating food, I can't wait to see
your expressions. You are okay with tummy time although still not in
love, you kick your feet in the air so I think crawling is a way off.
Rolling over has happened twice but I am pretty sure both occurrences
were last month. You can pretty much sit up on your own with someone
close, all by yourself you would fall over. You love to stand, much
more than sitting, but most of all you love to be held. You are also
starting to know who is holding you and becoming much more shy about
going to strangers. I kinda love the fact that you are obsessed with
mommy holding you. You are such a happy baby, smiling all day and
drooling like a faucet. You are also soooo laid back and low key, really
just amazing!!!
Your
smile lights up the room, it's contagious. Your eyes are still the
bluest of blue. And your personality is shy, happy, loving, and the
sweetest little guy all wrapped into one beautiful chunky legged little
boy. You do this wonderful mixture of
smiling...laughing...squealing....screaming thing that is so cute and
sometimes even fake which I totally call you out on. You are no longer
happy just sitting in your car seat and watching us eat dinner, you want
to be a part of it all and up and moving around most of the time
(remind you of anyone???).
This
month you went to your first Nats game, we got AC seats because it was
105 degrees outside. You went to the pool twice, jury is still out on
whether or not you like that scene. You went to work with mommy and
stayed home with daddy and Nona while I went away from your for the
first time ever over night. They were a very long three nights for me
and I am pretty sure you were either very tired or mad at me when I got
back, you hated the shark I gave you at the time which is now your
favorite toy. You (I don't want to jinx it) but are kinda back
to sleeping through the night. You love tv, are still obsessed with
your play mat and kicking your feet, you put everything into your mouth
including your entire hand fist included, and you are warming up/loving
your jumperoo. Your fave toy from the previous months "Mooey" is losing
his lead to the Shark I got you at the Atlanta aquarium.
While
I can't believe it has been 6 months, a half of a whole year, I can't
even remember me before there was you. You are the absolute best thing
that has ever happened to me and your dad. Having you has made life a
lot more simple and reminded us of the little things and how important
they are. We have pumped the breaks on our constant go go go 100 mph at
all times lifestyle and just enjoy our time with you as much as
possible. You are one very special boy and we are LOVING every second
of this life. I wish you could slow down a bit and each day could go on
for a week, but we are trying to live it up each day and get as many
hugs and kisses and smiles as we can.
You are absolutely amazing and we love you so so so much.
Love,
Mommy
