SIX months old

Better late than never... 

Luke James you are SIX months old ... well 6.5 now.. !!

You are wearing 6 month clothing, and some 6-9, but 6 month shorts are still a little big around your string bean belly.

We moved you up to a size 3 diaper.  Originally it was just for night time cause we were having some "leak" issues.. but then we ran out of the size 1-2's so we decided to just keep you in the size 3's all the time.  At first they seemed so big but I don't even really notice it now.

At your 6 month check up you weighed 16lbs 1 oz (25%) and 27.5 in long (80%)!

you still have your pacifier when you go to sleep, but during the day you don't have it most of the time, usually if I give it to you you will suck on it a few times then take it out and wave it around in the air!

You are still nursing around 5 times per day, sometimes 4 if you sneak past your 5-6am feeding. 

Your sold food schedule goes something like this:

You have oatmeal and a fruit (apple or banana) in the morning around 8.

Most days I give you plain yogurt around noon when I'm eating lunch; Heaven forbid you didn't get to eat when we did.... lol

Small snack, usually puffs (you love the kale puffs and sweet potato puffs)

And finally you have multigrain cereal and a veggie (peas, sweet potato, green beans, squash, or avocado) around 6 before bath time.

I also offer you a sippy cup of water with each meal, you don't always drink it but you love to try!

you love watching the trees out the window...

You typically sleep from 7pm-5am and then nurse and go back to sleep until 7:30 or 8.  On occasion you will skip your 5am wake up and get up around 7 for the day!

You love to squirm around all over the floor!  We call you our little worm

You have mastered "army crawling" and will pull your knees under yourself and just rock back and fourth but not take any steps yet, you just shoot your feet back out and continue army crawling along!

You have mastered the jumper, you love to jump and then lock your knees out and stop yourself.  You also think its pretty funny when dad plays peek-a-boo with you when your in there

anytime I try to take pictures of you sitting you you end up in a crawling position lol

We cannot believe how our lives have been changed in the past 6 months, but really couldn't have imagined anything better! We love you so much little man!
