6 months and going strong!

My Little Peanut is getting so big!! 15lbs 13oz, 26 in long and his head is 17in. He is eating 3 meals a day and lots formula in between and just teething like crazy, though we haven't seen any yet. He loves to sit up and play.'he loves his big Bubba, and he is all hands! He grabs anything and everything he can reach; especially if it's something you are eating or drinking! He is very loving and affectionate! He loves to give big slobbery kiss and loves to be hugged and cuddled! When is tired and while I rock him to sleep he puts his hand up and just rubs and plays with my face(nose, mouth, cheek, etc) He even plays shy with Daddy and others. I will be holding him and Gaelan will come up to talk to him and Alexander will grin real big, then hide his face in shoulder and then do it all over again, it is so cute! He has discovered his feet and has a great time having something new to put in his mouth(video in a different post) He is the exact opposite of Matthew, it is just so neat to see such a different personality and be surprised all over again at the things he does! He still sleeps really well, though with the teething he has been getting up in the middle of the night here and there, but still getting lots of sleep at night and during the day!

I don't remember if I updated about the Ear Nose and Throat doc or not. The ENT said that his ears are perfect. Given that he has an older sibling, he says that Alexander would probably have a few more ear infections than Matthew did, and that having a antibiotic resistant infection is more common now then not. He said unless he has more than 4 in a 3 month period or more than 6 in a year, he would take another look at him, but for now we don't have to go back!!


Little toot, he is all smiles till I get the camera out, then he just stares at it! Matthew and I worked really hard to get this one good smile out of him!




He is just fascinated by the poster of The Lady of Shallot that hangs on our wall!
Do you see his blonde hair that is coming in? I am excited and hoping that it stays blonde!

I took this while we were in Cleburne a couple of weeks ago, we were at a place called Jumpin Apes(a bounce house place) and they had the whole place decorated like a jungle, it was so cute I couldn't resist!
