hello mr. handsome!
dear babers
youre 6 months old now. time sure flies by when youre having fun. i still look back and see my little newborn squishy. youve come so far in this short 6 months.
youre "talking" now and say new words every day it seems. its hard to believe actually. you say "mom, hi, daddy, papa and bye" and you will copy anything we want you to say. it confuses mommy because you seem too young to be able to do this, but i check out what other 6 month old babies are doing, and youre right on with them.
ive been teaching you to high five recently. its cute. i showed you a couple times and you pretty much got it. of course i always have to show you what to do first, but thats expected, hehe.
i think youre ready to begin learning signs now. im excited for that.
youre almost sitting on your own now. you flop over after a few sec but thats okay. im here to catch you. you love standing with help of course. or you lean up against furniture to help you too.
youre into music and love toys that interact with you. your fav right now its this possessed dog that sings and talks on its own. its quite scary. but you love it. you squeal in excitement when you see him.
you love to be sang to and read to. and you love dancing.
another fav thing right now is when someone lifts you over their heads when up in the air. you giggle and smile and coo.
youre starting to eat more now too. such a big boy. sometimes you will cry and cry and cry and we dont know how to soothe you, so we stick you in your highchair and you immediately stop. you must know food is coming, because it works every time. you like bananas, carrots, butternut squash, apple sauce and cookies. youre not all that interested in peaches though. but you def have eyes for ice cream. and i sneak you a tiny bit here and there, shhhh dont tell!! its our secret ;)
recently you started to really have fun in your gym too. you werent big enough for it for a long time. but now your little toesies can touch the bottom and you can even bounce. you love it so much, you will play for endless amounts of time, spinning around and screaching in happiness.
youre still a very happy smiley lil thing. always have a smile for everyone. you love people and take to strangers well, which scares mommy. but thats just who you are. youre outgoing and love everyone.
youre starting to really watch children and animals now too. you love to see kids playing and having fun. you cant take your eyes off them.
but by far, your grandpa is your most fav person ever. you take to him like candy to babies ? (HA) that must be grandpas secret, he must be sneaking you sugar. but you really do love him and i call him your best friend. youve even tried to leap out of my arms to get to him, and you dont do that for anyone else. when you hear his voice, you go crazy trying to find him with your eyes. i think you hang out with him too much.
you bring so much joy and happiness to everyones lives. strangers want to meet you and gift you all the time. i still get random baby gifts for you from people ive never even met before. its heartwarming that you, a little tiny 6 month old baby can even touch someone whos only seen you from a far.
my heart aches for anyone who hasnt had the chance to hold you or see you yet, because son, they dont know what theyre missing. but than i think, thats okay, you have so many friends who love you no matter what, youre not missing out.
youre just so fantastic, words cant even express.
not a second goes by everyday i dont think about how much i love you. its like youve always been here. you just fit in so well. you sure have mommy and daddy wrapped around your tiny fingers. we would do anything for you or just make you smile.
i love you son, and even though youre 6 months old, you will always be my tiny litttle newborn squishy.
xx oo
