6 Months Old!

It still doesn't seem right that my little boy will be 6 months old tomorrow. People told me it would fly by and it sure has. Some days I just look at him and wish he could stay this age. He is so much fun. Josh and I feel so blessed to be his parents. We just love him so much and love watching him grow and change each day. Here is what he is up to these days:

-He is wearing size 3 diapers and mostly 6-9 month clothes
-He eats three solid meals a day and is on a 4 hour schedule for nursing
-He is still our little chunky mokey.. he weighed 18lbs at 5 1/2 months
-He even has fat rolls around his wrists and ankles
-He loves his vegetables and we just tried fruit today and he seemed to like it too, he always says "MMMM" sound when eating and whines if we don't feed him fast enough
-He has just started trying to use a sippy cup with water in it but hasn't got the hang of it yet
-He has the cutest 2 bottom teeth and we feel like more are getting ready to come in
-He is napping a little better these days... one hour nap in the am and usually 1hr 30min in the afternoon, he sometimes takes a little catnap around 5pm
-He still sleeps pretty good at night but ever since he started teething he has been more restless... he usually wakes up a couple of times and whines or fake coughs (this is something new he does for attention) for a few minutes then goes back to sleep
-He loves waking up a 5am... we usually make him stay in bed until 6am then I feed him and put him back to bed until 8am
-He "talks" all the time- his new sounds are a cute squeal and "DaDa" He says DaDa all the time, he also makes lots of "boy" sounds (grunting, lion sounds etc)
-He still loves bath time
-He loves being outside and going for walks
-He has rolled over but does not do it often, just a couple of times
-He is sitting with just a little bit of help
-He has the best personality and is so much fun
-I cannot remember the last time he cried during the day, sometimes he will whine at night when he wakes up; he is so laid back and we take him everywhere
-He has finally started interacting with Charlie and loves to rub/pull his hair
-He grabs EVERYTHING! We have to really watch him now
-He is still so cuddly and loves being held, sometimes he will even wrap his arms around our necks like he is hugging us
- We thank God everyday for this precious little boy!

We will post his 6 month pictures tomorrow, we have a busy day tomorrow so I decided to blog about him a day early
