Nate at 7 months!





Little boy, I cannot believe I am writing another one of these! It just seems impossible that you are 7 months old!

This month:

-You are wearing size 9 month clothes! Most of your 6 months stuff is too little.
-You are still in size 3 diapers.
-You are drinking 6 oz bottles about 4-5 times a day.
-You eat cereal and about 3 jars of baby food every day and you like everything!
-I am not sure how much you weigh or how tall you are, we go to the doctor in a week. I would bet you are getting close to 20 lbs.
-You have two bottom teeth.
-You are so close to crawling and love to play on the floor.
-You sleep mostly through the night, but usually wake up a couple of times.
-You love your Daddy and give him the biggest smiles!
-You can go backwards really well in your walker!
-You got a big boy carseat for Christmas!
-You still love Yo Gabba Gabba but also watch The Wiggles and Praise Baby.
-You sit up really well!
-You love to suck on lemons!
-You say "Momomomom" when you are sleepy or upset.
-You still jump in your jumparoo a lot!
-You are really starting to enjoy your toys!
-You are all boy and love to play and move! No sitting still for you!

I love you, my baby! Please don't grow up too fast, ok?

6 months...where did the time go?






My sweet sweet baby boy, how is it possible that you are already 6 months old. It seems like yesterday that we found out we were expecting you!

You are absolutely the sweetest baby in the whole world and I am so blessed to be your Mommy. You always are smiling and laughing and you bring so much joy into our lives!

This month you are:

-Wearing mostly size 6 months clothes, but they are getting a little tight.
-Not sure how much you weigh or how long you are (we haven't had that checked this month)
-Wearing size three diapers
-Eating 2-3 jars of baby food and 1-2 serving of cereal every day.
-Drinking 5-6 ounces every 4 hours or so.
-You haven't crawled yet, but are still scooting and rocking on all fours.
-Sleeping is a little better. You are only waking up 1-2 times at night, but once you wake up, it is really hard to get you to go back to sleep.
 -You go down every night about 8 and are up in the morning at 7.
-You nap 1-2 hours in the morning and 2-3 hours in the afternoon! Woohoo!
-You still LOVE your jumparoo and Yo Gabba Gabba!
-You say Dadada a lot! Mom is super jealous!
-You find it hilarious when Mom steals your paci. You take it out of my mouth, put it in yours, and laugh.
-You really love peek a boo
-You FaceTime your grandparents a lot and love to "talk" to them on the Ipad
-You can sit up now and can ride in the shopping cart and can sit up in restaurant high chairs!
-You love Laila and try to grab her or her toys all the time....she loves you too and I catch her trying to lick you when you are playing in the floor.
-You have your first tooth!
-You love looking at Christmas lights and Christmas trees and you loved meeting Santa!

I just love you, Nate, and I am enjoying every moment of being your Mom. Don't grow up so fast, OK?
