He's 6 months old! That's half of a year! OMG!

Actually, he's 6 months and 6 days, but who's counting? 
-Liam weighs 20lbs8oz and he's 29 inches long. O.M.G.  He is the same size that Sydni was when she was 1.  If he stays on the same growth pattern, when he's 1, he'll be the same size as her when she was 2.  Monster baby!


-He is still sleeping 10-12 hours a night.  After being sick he decided he was going to go through a mini growth spurt and wake up at 3:30am to eat.  Thank goodness that's over with!
-He's a rolling over fool.  He's now figured out how to roll all around in his crib while he's sleeping.  We find him in the funniest positions!

- He is still eating 7 oz at each feeding.  He eats cereal 3 times a day and fruits twice a day.  He now eats 2.5oz of fruit twice a day. and cereal twice a day. He still is only eating apples and pears since bananas hinder his ability to go to the bathroom!  He just switched to mixed grain cereal.  He had his first veggie today!!  Sweet Potatoes!!  He ate them like he'd had them a million times already!
-He is riding around comfortably in his Moby.  He loves it and it's comfortable for me, too!

-He is "talking" all the time!  

-He loves looking at himself in the mirror.  He starts smiling and laughing and then he throws his head in the other direction like he's embarrassed!

- He's such a happy baby.  He now laughs when we laugh, which is hilarious because it's just continuous because we laugh because he laughs, too!
-He's definitely not going to take after his sister.  If he sees it, it's his.  Anything he sees goes in his mouth and anything he sees he has to touch.  Oh joy!
- He's still obsessed with his feet!
-He still takes 2 naps a day.  His favorite place to nap is still on our bed with my body boppy pillow has the cushion, but I am in the process of trying to get him to nap in his crib.  It takes him a while to fall asleep and then he will only sleep for an hour if that.  
-He army crawls all around!  He gets where he wants to be and that makes him one happy guy!

-He is rocking back and forth on his hands and knees, so the full on crawl will be happening very soon!

-He is still wearing 18-24 month clothes. These jammies are 3t!!!! 
-He wears a size 4 diaper, but I did buy a box of 5's for when the 4's run out!

-He still chews his fingers CONSTANTLY.  If he isn't doing that, normally a binkie is in his mouth.
- He's doing great at learning how to sit up!  He now is attempting to sit without using his hands to support him.
- He hip sits all the time.  He looks like he's posing!!
-He wears his hair like this most of the time because he's a rockstar.
- He's learning how to use a sippy cup.  He get so excited when we give it to him!
-He loves spending time outside.
- He went on the swing at the park for the first time and he loved it!!!!

- 4 shots this month, but he doesn't seem as crabby this time! :-)
