6 Month Update!


Height/Weight: 18 pounds, 1.5 ounces. 26 3/4 inches long

Milestones: He is sitting up pretty well, can blow raspberries, stick both feet in his mouth and stand when holding onto our hands! Also, he started going to daycare a couple weeks ago, for about 4 hours a day, 3 days a week. He loves his teachers and his new friends, and loves to play and laugh while he's there!

Eating: Still breastfeeding a few times a day, bottles of formula for a couple each day. He has eaten rice cereal, sweet potatoes, apples, peas, pears, and carrots. He just starting eating twice a day and loves everything so far! Next week we'll start on meat!

Sleeping: For over a week now, he has been going to bed on his own (only cried for the first night!) about 7:30 and staying asleep until about 4 in the morning! Then he eats and goes back to sleep for 2-3 hours. We are SO happy that we are better rested!

Silliest Moment: Probably learning to blow raspberries. Sometimes he does it for minutes at a time, and has us in stitches!

Newly Emerging Attributes: He is starting to act a little shy when he meets new people close-up, by burying his head in our necks and turning away. He smiles the whole time, though!

Looking Forward To: His visit from his Grandpa & Grandma Falke (they'll get in later tonight), our upcoming trip to Colorado in July for his Aunt Zhavanya & Uncle Zach's wedding, and continuing to teach baby sign language!
