6 months


Stinker bug, six months was a ton of fun! The month of March included a work trip to Miami and I got to take you! Grandma came along to babysit while I worked and we also got to hang out with Auntie Lynn and Uncle Jim.

start to the month :)

serious thoughts

trying to get you to roll over!
As soon as we got home, we packed up and headed down to my favorite place on earth - Destin! We stayed in Seagrove Beach (30 A) and enjoyed every second (even though it was cloudy most of the week). Your Gran and Uncle John and Aunt Debbie and family had already planned a trip down there for Spring Break, so we decided last minute to join them!

you LOOOOVE joey


You are becoming so animated!  You've mastered sitting up fully by yourself!  You're starting to interact with Joey and other babies.  You LOVE your teacher, Miss Nicki and HDS and have started getting sad when we leave you.  This definitely breaks my heart!  You still nurse/bottle every 2.5 - 3 hours and drink normaly 4 ounces.  You're still unsure about baby food, but are getting better at eating! We usually feed you at night - it's always entertaining!  We've given you mum mum's and you LOVE those.  You're getting so much personality and it is so fun to see each change!  We love you so much stinker bug.  Love you to the moon and back :)

5 months

 This month started off with a bang - by getting the stomach bug :( This stomach bug hit you first, then mom, then finally dad.  I was so worried about you and after I got it, I thought I might have to quit nursing as my supply dropped dramatically.  Luckily it came back and I was able to keep nursing :)  This month was the first in day care and was very hard as I literally think you caught every sickness in the building.  I didn't work much because I was either at home with you or taking you to the dr!

Fun stuff:
  • You weigh 14.5 lbs and 24.5 in length (around 50th percentile in both)
  • Went on your first airplane trip to Winter Park, FL for Ashleigh and Wil's wedding!  You did so good on the trip and you got to meet the Bowen clan!!
  • Nursing/bottle every 3 hours
  • Not sleeping well AT ALL!
  • Started solids! 
  • Started grabbing
  • First fever :(
  • Trying to sit-up
  • Love to drink water out of a real cup
  • Love to go on walks
  • First snow
  • First SuperBowl - Bronco's didn't do so well
  • Discovered how to do fart noises
    Your awesome rolls

    4 month check up!

    The Broncos in your first SuperBowl!
