Duck face selfies! You were a little cranky when you came home today, so I tried to cheer you up. You’ve had this awful cough and runny nose the last week, and it’s just not going away. It kills me when you don’t feel well.

Day 361
Such a tired little superhero. You had a really busy day. The day started with you making your diaper explode during breakfast… after I was all ready for work… and you got poop everywhere… so you got a bath, again, this morning. Poop was on the wall, on the floor, in your booster seat, on me, all over you… EVERYWHERE! You threw up at school and came home in emergency clothes. You were super tired but we still managed to get a bath at night. Since your congestion is so bad, we gave you a breathing treatment. It made you cough a little, but you slept through the night.
Day 233
We’ve decided that you rock the tank tops, buddy. That’s all we want you to wear now that it’s summer.
Grandma watched you again today, and you did not have an easy day. You puked all over grandma and pooped on the floor. Bad Basher! Not really, but we’re not sure what was making you sick. I think it might have been your teeth giving you pain and trouble. But you still slept through the night!
Day 214
Oh, the humanity! You were super cranky yesterday. I blame the teething.
Day 213
I don’t know how we got so lucky with such a happy baby. Now that you’ve figured out how to stand, that’s all you want to do. You’re becoming more and more mobile… I think it might be time for a baby cage. 🙂 Um, I mean “playpen”!
Day 201
So, you were running a fever when you got home from school today, so we didn’t take any pictures. Instead, we took a nice luke-warm bath, cleaned your nose, gave you some Motrin, and fed you. That pretty much kicked your fever and made you fall asleep. I just hate it when you don’t feel well. 😦
6 Months!
You’re 6 months old today, kiddo! You’re still the happiest boy ever. In addition to everything from month five, you’ve mastered the following:
- pull yourself into standing
- sit supported with your arms
- you say mama and dada, only kind of on dada
- more verbal and starting to babble audibly
- instantly open your mouth for food
- know what certain images are
- more flirting, with baby girls and grown women alike
You’ve officially outgrown showering with dad, mainly because dad isn’t strong enough to control you anymore. You’ve really taken to bath time and love the tub (splashing, of course). We start your first “My Gym” baby class this weekend (AKA Toddler Crossfit) ; I’m positive that you’re going to be running by the end of the month. We’ve started you on solids. You started with stage 1 and now you’re on stage 2. Mangos are your favorite! Your allergies are still bad, and you still have a cough and congestion. The doctor said that it’s not in your lungs, so we don’t have to worry about breathing treatments anymore.
Day 179
This was you flirting with a tall blonde girl on Tuesday. Stud muffin!
Dad picked you up from school today and ran some errands with you so I could relax. I’ve not been feeling well 😦 so dad’s helping me a little more than usual.
Your’e almost crawling! And you’re mostly sitting by yourself. You figured out how to sit in the shopping cart just fine. It’s a whole new world at the store now that you can see everything!
Day 178
Oh, you were so moody yesterday. You were all smiles, and then wham; all crying and tears. You didn’t like the pineapples we fed you last night, either. When dad tried to give you a bottle, you wanted nothing to do with it. Only I was able to get you to eat. You didn’t want to fall asleep. You didn’t want you diaper changed because that meant that I had to put you down for a second. Sheesh, kiddo. More glom on mom today. It’s okay and we were completely patient with you, but it was the first time this has happened. We didn’t really know what to do. You’ve never turned away food before… but you went to sleep just fine and slept though the night 🙂
Day 176
You can’t get enough of this toy. On the other hand, dad hates it because it went off in the middle of the night while we were all sleeping. It scared him really badly because he thought someone was in the house. Now, we make sure it’s properly ‘off’ before we go to bed.
We’ve started feeding you Stage 2 foods, because you’re almost 6 months old and almost sitting by yourself.
