Playing with daddy:
Lots of long baths:
Playing dress up in his dino outfit from Aunt Tay and Uncle Chase...so warm!
Deacon turned 6 months old on December 24 (a little late on the post I know!)
6 month stats:
- 18 pounds 8 oz
- 27 3/4" long
- Gets up 1-2 times a night to eat and takes 2-3 naps during the day
- Words- dada, momma, hey, and poppa- although none of these are consistent nor does he say them purposefully yet
- Solid foods- applesauce, bananas, pumpkin, pears, sweet potatoes, squash, green beans, prunes- all homemade by mommy and daddy
- He has also tried apple juice this month and continues with organic cereal or oatmeal for breakfast
- He eats 2-3 meals a day of solid food and then nurses 6-8 times a day
- He loves his sissy (Maddy) and squeals in delight when she comes in the room
- Favorite toys- Noah's Ark, cement truck, forrest animals, his police cars, and all his books
- He can sit up and it super close to crawling- he can army crawl across the room. He can also pull up to standing in the bathtub
- He loves everything he isn't supposed to have-cords, cameras, and iphones- we are trying to be very firm with him when we say no and his hand has been smacked a few times this month-so far no success:) he just smiles
- He is happy most of the time and smiles all day long. He loves to scream as loud as he can and does this often in church.
- He loves older kids as this all he is ever around. They are all very good to him and he just sits and watches them.
- He loves to be talked to or interacted with if he is awake. He isn't interested in the tv or playing alone. He likes for one of us to be laying in the floor playing with him at all times-so we do! We save housework and chores for his nap times which is easier now that he takes longer naps.
- We are working on teaching him his body parts and the sign for more.
If you made it through this-God Bless You! We like keeping this for our own memory and for the grandmas who care about these things!
