Si and Coop

Man, these boys have grown!

Half Year Mark

Sweet baby JB has reached the half year mark! I cannot believe it has already been 6 months. I am not really sure how we did life without him as part of our family.


JB sleeps in his crib in his room for every nap and all night now! Don't let the picture below fool you- he still sleeps swaddled. Unswaddled, JB cannot stop rubbing his eyes. He loves his bed and actually refuses to sleep anywhere else now. (He is especially not going to sleep at church on Sundays. Ha!) He is also a champion sitter. I think he loves seeing the world from a new point of view.


JB eats once to twice a day. It kind of depends on the day. He loves rice cereal with fruit, apples, pears, green beans, and squash. Bananas are ok. I did give him a puff the other day. An enormous meltdown ensued. I am thinking we will wait a little while before trying that again. :) Jaby has also started teething. He is constantly sucking in his bottom lip. No teeth yet, but he does have swollen bottom gums.


The little buddy loves to laugh, smile, his big brother, and Rudy! Rudy always makes him happy, and he will try his very best to get to him. Rudy, on the other hand, tries his very best to position himself so that a grown up will pet him and JB can't reach him. He is very sweet to JB but isn't a fan of all the accidental grabbing. Soon, they will be best buddies I think.

 (Si took this extremely attractive picture of Rudy and me. LOL! He has decided he is a budding photographer.)


 

JB's stats are in- Weight: 16 lbs 5.5 oz (28%)
                           Height: 26 in (24%)
                           Head: 44cm (72%) Hahaha!
Silas was a monster compared to tiny JB. Si was 21 lbs 1 oz (98%), 28 3/4 inches tall (91%), and his head was 46 cm (93%). I have to take a picture of JB in his carseat so that we can compare it to Silas. Silas was outgrowing the carseat by 6m and we had to upgrade. JB will fit for quite a long while.





We also headed to Selma this month to Gigi and Gdaddy's house before school starts back. JB got to meet Amy and Anna Reed for the first time. We are blessed with such a wonderful family.







Can't end without a comparison picture!


 
Happy Half Year Baby Jaby!
