Happy 6 months to my little man

Time is just flying by! The 6 month mark is my favorite stage of babyhood. Long gone is my little newborn. In his place is a squishy, cuddly baby. Your personality is really starting to show and you are just the sweetest and happiest baby.

You are def a mommy's boy. (I hope you stay that way for a long time)

You love to talk and make noises and your sister makes you laugh non stop.

Your favorite thing to do is bounce in your bouncer and watch us bounce a ball to your sister. If it hits her the louder you laugh.

She loves trying to feed you and give you your pacifier. You take it all in stride and just watch her in awe

You have started showing interest in a variety of toys. You like anything with wheels, your bouncer, your squeaky monkey, and anything that lights up and plays music

You are also a bubble guppies fan like your sister. When I turn it on for her in the morning you stop and stare at the tv like it's the most amazing thing in the world

Your smile is the best thing about you. It starts out slow and then spreads throughout your whole face. It melts my heart every time you smile at me

You are still not crawling but it won't be long. You get up on all fours and it looks like you are planking or doing push ups. You scoot yourself backwards all over the room but it's forwards where you get stuck

You roll over front to back and back to front

You are basically sleeping through the night. In your crib! Mommy misses you sleeping next to her at night.
You don't really like your crib though. You've always liked to sleep in tight spaces and the crib is too big for you. I may put the co sleeper in there to see if that works better

You have pretty much weaned yourself off breast milk. I still nurse you at night and sometimes during the day but you seem more content and happier after you've eaten a bottle of formula. So usually you get bottle during the day and then I nurse you at night if you wake up

You are currently teething. NO teeth have popped through yet but your gums are all red and I can feel two that want to break through soon
You wear size 3 diapers
You are in size 9 month clothes
You weigh 17lbs 18 oz
You are 25in long
Your mommy and daddy love you so much. You have completed our family in so many ways.
We love you to the moon and back
