6 Months old!

I can't believe my little guy is half a year already! It's insane to think that in another 6 months we will be celebrating his first birthday!

Well this was a month full of accomplishments:) You finally learned to roll over but you could care less. You roll over to your back when we put you on your tummy and thats how you stay. You hate to play on your tummy!
You learned to sit all by yourself. I still have to have padding all around you if I can't be RIGHT next to you because you do fall back every now and again but for the most part when you want to stay sitting you can.

We started you on solids this month. Let the baby food making begin !!!!! I love making your own food knowing that I control exactly what goes in the food you are eating leaving all the nutrients in tact but I'm not a fan of the time it takes to make it. It was a lot easier when I didn't have a 2 year old demanding attention all the time. BUT its worth it to me knowing you are getting all the more nutrients you were intended to get from natural food. You get so jealous when you see us eating and you love to suck on mommies apple when Im eating it. So far you have tried rice cereal, banana, avocado, mangos, and apples.

You are still a good sleeper and I think we've gotten into a routine as far as sleeping goes. You have about 4-5 hr naps a day. A couple of those are a couple hours at least but the times you need them have been pretty consistent lately which is nice for me to be aware of. You LOVE you sue and have been able to grab it and put it in your own month since you were 4 months old. You LOVE to grab at everything right now!

You are sleeping pretty good still. You go to bed around 9:30pm and wake up around 2am for a quick feeding and then around 6 for a diaper change and feeding. Usually you stay awake for an hour almost exactly and go back to bed at 7am and sleep until 11. Sometimes you get up at 7 or 8 but not on your terms. Grayden LOVES to wake you up for whatever reason and then it sorta messes with your sleeping routine.

You are still as happy as ever and usually only fuss for 3 reasons (full diaper, hungry, or sleepy) if all three are taken care of you are a gem! I have noticed in the last week that you may be starting the teething process. The drooling and the chewing have begun!

Well Dax you are so amazing and you are such a blessing in so many ways. We absolutely adore you and can't imagine our lives with out love!
HAPPY MONTH BIRTHDAY
XOXOXO
MOMMY
Your not a fan of rolling over :) but you can sit by yourself no problem.
I am so blessed to have had such amazing good babies! You are such an angel

Trouble..Trouble

The last month and half Grayden you have been such a little monkey!!.....GETTING INTO EVERYTHING and making a HUGE mess! I don't know what has gotten into you these last couple of weeks, but man!!! Here are a few pics of what Grayden has been up to this month!!!!!!
LoL


This had to have been the worst! Daddy left some paint cans on the stairs so that next time he went down there he would remember to put them in the storage room. well they ended up staying there for a few days and I was down stairs on the couch nusing Daxtin. Grayden was playing with his dionosaurs around the corner and I heard him climb a couple of stairs but he was being oh so quiet and playing so good with his dinosaurs (so I thought) After about 10 minutes he was just being WAY TO QUIET so I put Dax down and turned to corner to find Grayden at the top of the stairs covered in chocolate brown paint head to toe painting my walls and dipping his dinosaurs in the paint.


This happend only a few short days later! Grayden got into the pantry and grabbed the cheerio box and dumped the entire thing on my living room floor!

First time on solids :)

Dax tried solids for the first time today! He did such a good job and I've never met a boy thats been more ready for PEOPLE food :)
Every night at supper your eyes are GLUED on to whatever we are eating and I want so badly to just give you a BITE. Just a bit longer love, for now we just have to settle with your pureed brown rice. LoL
