Up on all fours!
Dear Patrick,
Six months already! My how time flies! You are getting so big, and learning new things everyday. This month you have starting sitting up on your own - not for long, but long enough to grab a toy or two and check our your feet, which you love! When you have shoes on your feet are even more fascinating. You have started to stand on all fours, and can move backwards, but have not mastered how to go forward yet. I am sure it's only a matter of time!
We don't have an official weight yet, we go to the Doctor next week, but I am guessing you weigh around 16 pounds if not more. Our best guess on height is around 26 inches. Your growing weight and height has bumped you up to 6 month clothes and even some 9 month! You are still in size 2 shoes, and love them. You have also graduated to size 3 diapers.
You are still nursing (YAY for us!) but seem to lose interest sometimes. We will see how much longer we can go. My goal is at least until Christmas! You are still eating solids and have added green beans to your list of foods (You loved them!) Making your food has been pretty easy so far! This month we are going to try apples and sweet potatoes.
Sleeping is another story...You are still waking up around two to three times a night. Thankfully you will nurse for about 10 minutes and go right back to sleep each time, but Mommy is still very tired at work! We are hoping as you get a little bit bigger you start sleeping longer (More like praying!) You still love sleeping your tummy, and lately have been sleeping with your legs scrunched up so your butt is up in the air. It is very cute!
Ms. Margaret says you love the kids at daycare, and they for sure love you! Everyone comments on how you are such a happy baby, and it is very true! You rarely cry and are content just to look around and take everything in. You did have your first cold from daycare this month, which made for some sleepless nights because your little nose was so stuffed up. Luckily, the humidifier seemed to help tremendously!
Patrick, I cannot believe you have been in our lives for half a year now. You have brought so much joy to us and I can't imagine life without you. I can't wait to see what your discover next month!
Love,
Mommy
