Laekan Harper-The fun is just beginning with you...and we LOVE it! Daddy and I were talking the other day and we forgot how much fun each month is as you change so much the first year. We could eat you up with a spoon everyday all day. You continue to be a very laid back guy like your Daddy-thank goodness! This month was another full one between Halloween and Mommy having sinus surgery and being down for a few weeks. I can't believe how much my heart grows more and more for you(and your sister) everyday! Here is what you are up to as of today:
*You are wearing 6 month, 6-9 month, and 9 month clothes. 9 month jammies.
*You are still wearing size 2 diapers with a size 3 at night. You continue to stay dry at night so I think we have it all figured out finally.
*Same schedule all day and night long:)
*You are starting to nap better in the morning-because we are home now more in the mornings.
*You have started to wake up around 7 some mornings and I will either go pat your bottom back to sleep or just rock with you in the chair and sleep with you there!!! It is our special time that I will miss so much when you outgrow this.
*Eating 28 ounces a day.
*We have started mixing a fruit with your cereal for breakfast, and you eat a veggie before your 4 o'clock bottle. You really do love to eat!!! We haven't found anything you don't like.
*You just recently(5 days ago) decided you could roll from your back to your tummy. However, you aren't showing this skill off too much right now. We look forward to you getting better at this so you can roll yourself back over at night.
*Since discovering your thumb you continue to suck on it-although not really to put yourself to sleep or even for soothing. Just for something to do-see picture below!
*You scooted off your sister's bed this month and she tried to catch you. You pretty much slid down the bed with her arms below you because she couldn't quite stop you. She was the one that was the most upset-we are talking very upset because she wanted to protect you. Ever since this episode she is very careful of you if you are on furniture and we walk away. She wants you safe!
*You continue to adore Taegan. Just tonight before bed she was singing you songs to keep you happy while I was doing something and you just smiled and laughed at her!
*You have discovered people's faces and this is your new fascination. You want to put your hands all over our face and feel it all. Taegan loves this-and then you pull her hair:)
*You found your toes, and can't get enough of them. They go straight to your mouth.
*You continue to love Sophie-she is your go to toy if you are upset.
*You are playing for quite a while in your exersaucer and figuring out all the noisemakers on it.
*You will now sit up with the boppy behind you and play with toys-although you need to have pretty good support with the boppy.
*Daddy can get great laughs out of you when blowing on your tummy before bath!!
*Speaking of baths-we figured out to give you a chew letter or number(bath toy) and you love the bath now.
*You are taking a bath with your sister most nights and you think that is pretty fun(so does she)!
*You are still spitting up, most times with no warning at all and it doesn't bother you.
*This month pictures were a bit of a challenge, you are almost mobile and wanted the sign!
Trying to show off your sitting skills...and that handsome smile!
Can't decide what you want in your mouth-Sophie or your thumb.
There's that sign, Mom!! I'm not letting go of Sophie though.
Melt my heart..Happy Six Month Birthday Laekan!!! We love you more then words can say and can't wait for the holidays with you.
