6(months)








This little nugget of mine is 6 months old tomorrow and I honestly am having a hard time believing it. I swear I was pregnant with him like a week ago. He is the LOVE of my life. I couldn't ask for a cuter face to wake up to every morning nor a sweeter face to kiss a million times every night. He "brightons" my day. Every day. Love love love him and am SO excited for every day yet to come.
Facts 'o B:
  • He loves food. I mean really loves it. With the exception of rice cereal. The first "solid" food I gave to him was green beans and he ate the entire thing. He has now experienced: green beans, peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, yams, apples,squash, peaches, pears and bananas (which I secretly love). He eats oatmeal with peaches mixed in every morning. A fruit for lunch and a fruit/veggie for dinner. Except for today. His breakfast was: Oatmeal/peaches plus the rest of the peaches in the container. Lunch: Peaches AND bananas. Dinner: Sweet Potatoes AND bananas. Yep. He's my child.
  • He rolls over.
  • He goes down for bedtime and (most) naps like a champ. But hasn't slept all the way through the night yet.
  • He enjoys the sound of his voice and has recently discovered to do an extremely high pitched squeal. Which he does very frequently.
  • He smacks his lips and bites his bottom lip (like his mama).
  • He curls his toes (like his daddy). 
  • He crosses his feet. I find it extremely adorable.
  • He's extremely ticklish (also like his mama).And laughs every time I dress/undress him. Never fails.
  • He LOVES animals. Especially dogs.
  • He almost weighs 17 lbs and has the yummiest chubby thighs.
  • He loves giving mama open mouth, tongue out, slobbery kisses. And mama loves them in return.
  • He has such a fun loving and sweet personality. He smiles at everyone and loves to give cuddles.
  • He likes to grab my cereal bowl in the morning and pull the entire bowl onto our laps.
  • His arms are always straight out from his body. Always. See bumbo picture.
  • His fingers are his favorite treat.
  • He used to have a full head of dark black hair. He now has a full head of light brown/blonde hair.
  • He can fall asleep by his head getting rubbed. (like mama)
  • He's not a fan of being on his tummy but ends up there a lot.
  • His laugh is to die for.
I know I am missing some of his little quirks but one thing I know for sure is that I LOVE my little buddy.
To the moon and back. To infinity and beyond. Forever and ever...

Time: now if you wouldn't mind slowing down now. I would greatly appreciate it.
