Ethan is growing like crazy right now! He’s grown over a pound and over an inch and a half since last month! He is now 28.8″ long and weighs 22 lb, 2 oz at 6 months old.
He absolutely loves his siblings. He’s been more of a Mommy’s boy this month, wanting to be held almost constantly and preferring me over Daddy lately.
He’s gotten great at rolling from back to belly, so he often wakes up that way. He has been sleeping through the night, which has been awesome!
He had ONE night where he felt bad last month and kept us up all.night.long. Considering that is the ONLY time that has EVER happened with him, we are ridiculously blessed in the sleep department! This guy likes his sleep.
He’s been doing this sweet little singing thing to lull himself to sleep. You can tell he’s tired if he starts his ‘uhhhhhhhhh’ singing. He is delighted when someone pats over his mouth when he does it to make a silly sound.
He’s loving his exersaucer and enjoys when we go outside. He is patting and grabbing at everything. He’s able to pinch and grab all sorts of things. He is totally into paper right now. He’s also a hair puller.
Still no teeth, but TONS of drool. He’s been spitting up a lot less lately.
He had his first food a little while back. He had green beans and was okay with them, but I just am not pushy with starting babies on food this early, so I haven’t given him anything since then.
I just realized that he has now doubled his birth weight of 11 lb, 1 oz. Aww! He’s above the 95th percentile in height and weight. People are shocked at his age when they see him. We just moved him up to size 4 diapers.
I feel very blessed! He is a precious little guy and a wonderful addition to our family.
