Six Months

(Feb. 7 - Mar. 6)
You're six months old!!! Here's what you've been up to during your sixth month:

- started rolling from back to belly
- are sitting up. You can sit for a while unassisted, but you eventually fall over.

- are getting more and more vocal. I love hearing you talk to me, or your daddy, or your toys, or the hall light.
- are so active during play time. 

- love all the new foods... prunes, squash, pears, sweet potatoes, peaches, green beans, apples... the list goes on & you hold your own bottle. 

- wake up around 5:30 or 6, take a long morning nap, take an early afternoon nap, & sometimes take a later afternoon nap. You go to sleep sometime between 8-8:30... We are adjusting to the daylight savings time change. 

- went through a serious wonder week / clingy phase right at the end of February. You refuse to nap or be put down. We had to hold you all weekend. (Which I am mostly ok with.)

- GOT TWO TEETH!!!!! (I might be crying a little. I am gonna miss that big ole smile full of gums.)

- celebrated your first valentines day
- went to your first rock show. You got to watch Uncle Joe and Uncle Dillon play in their bands.
- got another cold. And it has thrown off your semi-predictable sleep patterns.

- love playing with your feet

- suck your thumb

- are such a smiling, happy baby! You're the coolest baby I know.

I can't believe my sweet boy is half a year old. The last six months have been indescribable. Being your mommy is more fun, busy, sweet, exhausting, rewarding, and fulfilling than I ever thought possible.
