6 mos....really?

Wow, little brother is now 6 months old. It is amazing how much they change in such a short period of time. Anderson is growing like a weed (size 9-12 mo clothes now) and learning to do more things everyday. He has a fun little personality, the most kissable little cheeks and dimples, and the softest, chunkiest legs.  His skin is just so soft and fluffy you could just eat him up. The past few months have definitely had its challenges though. The poor guy is a little advanced for his age. Sounds like a good thing, right?? WRONG!! Every mom wants their child to be advanced in some areas....just not orthodontically advanced. In 2 months, Anderson has gotten 6 teeth. Yep, that's right. At 6 months old, he has 6 teeth. Four on the bottom and 2 on top (except the top teeth are on the sides instead of the middle, like a vampire). Very funny but hard on the little guy. We are hoping the front come in soon...but maybe not too soon. The poor baby needs a break. He is definitely a paci-holic now.

At 6 months:
- Still not sleeping through the night. Bedtime is 7:15 but he still often wakes every 4 hours. At best he sleeps until 3:30 to eat and then up by 6:30 for the day.
-3 naps a day
-Eating every 3.5-4 hours with solids at breakfast and dinner.
-Loves to jump in the jumper
-Can roll around on the floor to find his paci or toy
-Puts everything in his mouth
-Likes to play with Alec when he is well rested....but cries if Alec bothers him when he is tired
-Is super nosey....he stops nursing to check things out.
-Sitting up with a little support, but mostly on his own
-Loves to be naked and get his diaper changed. He also loves the bathtub.
-Kicks his feet on the floor so much that he had a scab on his heel. He thinks it is great fun!

It has been a busy 6 months but we have adjusted and love having two little boys. Alec will be so excited when Anderson is finally big enough to play. He is always trying to wrestle with him and show him his toys. But he is not quite ready to share them...hopefully that will improve with time.

That's Alec under the walker in his PJ's pushing him down the hall. Anderson was a little annoyed.

Blue eyes...we are still waiting for them to change. But I hope they don't:)
