26 inches (grown 2 inches in 2 months)
and 15 pounds (gained 2 pounds in 2 months!)
the dr said i am getting taller faster than i am getting rounder,
looks like ill be built like daddy.
i hardly cried getting my 3 six month shots,
just like a big boy.
for my big half year birthday,
mama and papa are taking me to their favorite place
YOSEMITE.
(mom is already starting to think about my big 1 birthday bash
she bought a cute little cake pan for my first cake
and researched some low sugar baby friendly options)
where the heck do you have a kids bday party in MARCH?
besides chucke cheese and a park...hrrmm
exxcitment
also...i sleep in pj's without a swaddle (after 5 months of swaddling)
ive moved back to the bedtop bassinet gearing up to move to my own crib and room next week.
mom and dad are a little teaery eyed. they like waking up to my smiling face every morning but
im a big boy now.
mom is making me my own organic baby food. i cant wait for sweet potatoes next week (already ready for me)
ive been eating mostly breast milk for 6 months, some formula.
mom and i never got the hang of latching and positioning, even after seeing a consultant and moms painful undiagnosed infection.
so, shes been expressing and feeding me, 6-10 times a day for the last 5 months.
its very time consuming and mechanical.
she promised me and herself, she would keep it up for my health until 6 months, and then would reconsider the situation.
now at 6 months, she reached her goal, and all the pumping, shes not sure if she wants to give up such a special thing for me.
at 6 months, im so many things!!

five and a half months
have just flown by....he grows and changes everyday and everyday its truly amazing (and i wont lie....also hard and frustrating at times). I was laid off at the end of june and since then i've been a stay at home mom. its always been my dream to be a stay at home mom, but wow, it sure is more work than i ever thought it would be. finding time for myself isnt very easy. but i love that little guy more than i ever thought i could love anything!
baby milestones: smiles at everything, giggles, laughs out loud, rolls from back to tummy and tummy to back, he loves standing, splashing, grabbing toys and putting them in his mouth, i put him down on his play mat with toys all around him and he moves 180 degrees and grabs and throws toys, has been eating oatmeal cereal for 3 weeks and is becoming a pro (now twice a day).
there is just so much to say....and i dont know what else to say!
