6 months old

Mom gets so busy and does not take the time to sit down and blog. So major picture overload on the last few posts but not a lot of info about you. So here goes. You had your first Easter, mom did not buy any one new outfits specifically for Easter and she did not take any pictures, what can I say Sundays are super hard. You started physical therapy on May 1st. Lacy your therapist showed us some exercises to work on at home to improve your Hypotonia. She also measured your head and it doesn't meet the requirements for a helmet but hopefully all these exercises will improve your strength so you won't be floppy head on the right side all the time. In early April I stopped breastfeeding. It was so hard with you because I only got six weeks off work and the going back to work and pumping just doesn't work very well. We were already using a lot fo formula so it wasn't a hard switch and it took a huge weight off mom after I stopped feeling guilty. On April 6 you rolled over from front to back for the first time. On the 15th of April you had your second therapy appointment and Lacy said you were already improving so much. On April 29 you sat up all by yourself and you can roll both ways. May 1 you started sleeping thru the night and as of today May 12 you still have been. On May 2 we decided to have you sleep in the big boys room in your crib for the first time. It was Heaven to not have you in mom and dads room and to have you sleeping thru the night. May 11 you had ice cream and rice cereal for the first time. Your six month appointment is coming up this week. You can sit by yourself, you can roll both ways, you sleep thru the night, you love to smile and laugh, you like to sleep on your belly, you don't like the swing so much anymore and you try to get out when you are put in it, you wear size one diapers, you are a happy happy baby. You are wearing three to six month size clothes, you love your brother, you only seem to fuss when you are hungry, tired or need a diaper change. You love to be outside. You are just a good little baby and mom loves you more than she can ever express.
