Andrew {6 Months!}

That's right! My little boy is 6 months old! He has been such a joy and such a wonderful addition to our family. I just love him to bits! I love waking up to his happy, smiley little face and love how his little smile can just turn everything around. He is such a fun little guy and seriously just so adorable! I could go on and on and on about how utterly adorable he is but I'm sure you all would get tired of it. So I'll just update you on what he's been up too this past month!

Unfortunately this month I didn't keep quite as nice of a list going of what he's been up to so I only have a few things to share.

First off....he is becoming mobile! At first he was randomly rolling over from his tummy to back, then he added in some turning in circles while on his tummy, then he started moving backwards on his tummy, and then two weeks ago he rolled from his back to his tummy for the first time and hasn't stopped since! So he's rolling and scooting himself all over now. Although it's pretty funny...I've only ever seen him roll to the left...never to the right :)

Second...he's been eating more and more "real" food....mostly bananas cuz I usually have those available, and randomly some baby food. I need to up the frequency though cuz he's been wanting our food more and more. I have also recently started to give him the baby puffs on his tray, which keeps him busy and happy for a long while. He's getting a lot better at picking up the little puffs although still needs some work...for now it's just funny to watch :)

He's still fairly "talkative" and lately has started to "growl" at me...mostly when he's hungry and is trying to get my attention about it. :) He is also more frequently humming/singing to himself when he falls asleep which is pretty cute. He's got a pretty set schedule , which is nice, and pretty much always goes to bed around 8, with Evelyn. Unfortunately the past week he's started waking up earlier and earlier and the past couple days has woken up at 6am...no thank you! We're still working on sleeping through the night though..so far that's not going the best. Which is mainly because.....

Andrew has TWO teeth! He's been teething it seems like forever and it finally paid off! Not too happy about it really but I can't do much about it. Anyway....about 2 1/2 weeks ago he was chewing on my finger and I felt something sharp and there was the first little tooth! Then a week later #2 came through! SO that definitely messed with his sleeping. Then on top of the teeth coming in he had a cough for a couple weeks...nothing major but enough to bother his schedule a bit. It woulda gone away sooner if he hadn't been teething at the same time and had the runny nose from that. Ugh. Such joy! :)

Anyway...I guess another thing is he's starting to sit up by himself better but usually not very long...he still needs to work on balancing himself when he's reaching for things/when he gets excited...for now he pretty much always falls over :) Oh! and one good  thing about this month is he's finally over his dislike of the car! I knew switching him to the big car seat would help and it really has.

Oh again! :) I took the big boy to his 6 month check up on Monday. He is 28 inches long and weighs 19lbs 10oz. I can't remember/find what he weighed last month but I think it was 20. So either we were weighing him wrong or he's evened out a bit with his increased activity :) Either way he's a happy, healthy, adorable little boy!

Well that's all that I can remember for now. Here's the rest in pictures! :)

Sleeping babies are so sweet! :)

I think he was laughing at Evelyn but can't remember :)

gotta love the drool baby! :)

fresh clean baby!

more sleeping babies :)

working on sitting up 

wearing a super adorable outfit my bestie bought for him! :)

Everytime he sits and plays in his high chair he sits like this...plays with his toys with  his right hand and then his left just hangs off the side. Random but funny :)

He's also discovered he likes investigating things upside down :)

Love my kiddos!

They're so cute :)

Good morning world! :)

Enjoying some sunshine!

more sleeping....he was playing on the floor one night and just fell asleep! pretty funny :)

two teeth!

Happy boy playing in his exer-saucer! 

I had to move it up to the highest level that day...he's getting so tall! And he really goes wild in this thing! Sometimes I'm afraid he's gonna tip it over 

Going to pick up Evelyn from Preschool! (this is in the parking lot :) 

so serious :)

See? arm hanging off again :)

Oh, well I guess I do have one other thing. For Valetine's/his 6 month mark we did a little photo shoot (of course :) and here's some pictures of my gorgeous kids! :)

The first one was showing off his cute Navy outfit again...love my little guy!

My sweet little girl!

And the second shoot :) Evelyn is such a little poser! :)

Love this face though!

 And my little boy! I saw the kisses idea somewhere and loved it and have been waiting for Valentine's to do it! He's so adorable!

And there you go! A nice super long post filled with pics :) I do have some posts to do other than an Andrew monthly update but we'll see when I get them done! Life has been fairly busy :) Til then! love you all!
