Weight:
Height:
Hair: blonde with brown and red
Eyes: blue. Strange. Wonder when they will change.
Wearing 6 months onesies and pants and 9 month sleepers.
Still has just the one tooth. I think more should be here soon.
Sleep: naps have regressed big time. Generally lucky if we get 30 minutes in. Of course if we hold him he will nap forever :). Needs 2-3 naps depending on their lengths. Sometimes needs a 4th
Night sleep: aweful. His new thing is to be up for at least 1.5 hrs at some point throughout the night. Wide awake. Wants to be held. He generally goes to bed between 7-8 and always awake at 5 but can sometimes nurse him back to sleep until 6-7. Still trying to get him off the swaddle. He goes down without but usually ends up back in it at some point.
Is only nursing first thing in am and once during the day. Then Throughout night as needed. Otherwise he eats about 7oz bottles.
He still loves food. Havent tried meat yet but I think I will get some chicken soon. He eats three meals a day. We have been trying food that isnt as pureed. He is getting the hang of it. He still wont bring anything to his mouth on his own. Not his cookies, cheerios, toys or sippy cup.
No sign of crawling. He still hates his tummy. So in the two minutes he tolerates being on it, he doesnt do much. I saw a 6 month old todAy who was doing so much on her tummy it makes me think he needs more practice!
He is talking up a storm lately! And sticks his tongue to push out his lower lip. It is very cute. My MIL swears he said daddy yesterday when sam walked by.
He is now great in a car. For long cottage drives I end up
In the back seat with him but thats ok.
He loves the stroller now. And the grocery store. Oh man what a flirt! He always gets the ladies attention!
My boy is now the happiest little guy ever! He loves to laugh. And has become a lot more easy going. When he is tired he gets a bit cranky but then just needs more hands on attention. No making dinner! But if I tKe him outside then he becomes happy again
When he gets tired he also gets a major case of the sillies! This is usually when sam gets home and is getting him ready for bed. All I hear is nonstop giggles!
His favourite toy is his soosie! He takes it out of his mouth and passes it back and forth in his hands and bangs it on whatever he sees. He has yet to put it back in his mouth.
He notices Sienna a lot. He loves to grab her fur.
His arms never stop moving. Ever. It is weird. I dont remember this with any of the others. His ankles are also always rotating.
Favourite toys:
His soosie
His cell phone
The rings
Starting to like his blabla doll
His shape sorter (loves sitting on the couch by himself playin with this)
His purple animal popping thing. Its amazing how much more focused he is on closing the 'doors' then when he started.
Books:
Brown bear brown bear what do you see (he laughs)
He loves reading
Dislikes
Sleep
Clothes going over his arms
People yelling or being really loud.
Overall this is a great age. He is so aware if everything going on. He went to a sing song group at the library todAy with a bunch of little kids so I think he will enjoy it. Its rare that he is so upset that you cant distract him with something else. So while he still wont last too long at one activity, there is always something else to show him.
He knows when he does somethjng that makes you laugh. He will then keep doing it over and over again!
He is so cute! My heart breaks every month when I write this because that means he is just getting older and older. But I am still excited to see what comes next!
