Six Months

Hi!  My name is Kari and my baby is six months old.  What?!

Baby Stats:

Weight: 18 lbs.  

Sleep: We are doing SOO much better with this.  Colin goes to bed between 8:30-9pm, wakes between 5-6 for a bottle and sleeps again until 7:-8:30.  It is glorious!  Naps are still really flexible- I'm just happy if he naps for an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon.  Otherwise, I don't care when or where naps happen as long as Colin isn't cranky!

Feeding: I am officially done nursing and pumping!  It is wonderful to be free!  Colin finished the last of the stored milk I had this last weekend and now he is completely on formula and solids.  We just introduced Sprout cereal and peaches.  Now that he is 6 months old he has lots of new foods he can try.  Let the mix and match begin!

Diapers: size 2
Clothing: 6-9 month clothes but edging towards 9 month clothes

Hair Color: Brown

Eye Color: Brown

Milestones: Sitting up on his own
Nicknames: Noodle and Goomba
Favorites: Johny Jump Up, stroller rides, being outside, sitting by himself, playing in front of the mirror, Dupree (Colin found Dupree this month and it is adorable), bath time

My Sweet Little Colin-

Can you please stop growing?  Can I freeze time?  Life is flying by and I feel like we just brought you home from the hospital.  When I think about the last six months I can't help but smile.  I'm beyond in love with you.  You are getting busy and I love it!  I love that you are learning and growing.  My favorite is the morning with you- opening the blinds together, playing on mommy and daddy's bed, and snuggling before your nannies come over.  But I can't deny that I rush home to get back to you!  You are such a good baby and so happy.  You are simply a blessing.  And I love you.

XOXO Mama
