6 Months Old

I can hardly believe that our little miracle baby is now 6 months old. Was I seriously pregnant over six months ago…going into labor at 7 am and having him at 3:58 pm. We have been so blessed these past six months watching this little man grow, improve, change, and bring so much joy to so many!!! We love every ounce of his chunky legs and cannot get enough of his contagious smile!!!

• Loves to touch and grab my face with his sweet chubby fingers while feeding.
• Does not really like to be covered with a blanket while nursing…makes it harder to nurse while we are out and about that is for sure.
• Talk about a rolling machine. He can move 360° on his stomach and rolls all over.
• Can hold the “crawling” pose for quite a while, but can’t get up onto all fours by himself quite yet.
• Can sit pretty well on his own, but topples over quite easily. It must be hard to sit with such a chubby bum and being shaped kinda like a ball!
• Loves to sleep with mommy….I have become a fan of the laying down and nursing…I get more sleep and so does he. I am sure I will regret this later down the road, but for now I will enjoy our time together.
• Is so intrigued by trees. He is very wide eyed when we are outside and loves to look up at the trees.
• Adores his brother. I know he wants more attention from Andrew, but the kiddo is so busy these days, but when Andrew does pay attention to Carter he just soaks it all in!
• He has tickliest chin, feet, hands, sides, neck, bum…heck, he is just a tickly kid!
• Loves to eat his toes, especially when he has footie jammies on with cute animals on the feet.
• I believe he is getting a tooth on his bottom left…but Bry says I am mistaken. Only time will tell!
