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
