Sweet little Abey Baby is 6 months!

I really can't believe it has already been 6 1/2 months since our precious little boy arrived. I feel like we're still in the adjustment period, but it HAS gotten a bit easier. Baby Abe has started eating some solids, gotten 2 teeth so far, learned to NOT cry in car seat non-stop, and is S-L-O-W-L-Y gaining weight and figuring out how to sit up without immediately face planting.

He likes:

Having his clothes and diaper changed. It makes him chuckle, every time.

Watching his big brother play, talk, run, eat, etc...

Sucking on fingers and toes.

Listening to mama sing.

Taking baths.

Looking at other babies.

He doesn't like:

Being taken out of his bath.

Eating. He basically only nurses when he HAS to...like, to not starve. This dislike of eating is why he weighs a whopping 12 pounds. Solid foods have been rocky so far. Three bites seems to be his max, but we hit the jackpot tonight with avocado.

Being in his high chair. See above.

Sleeping. What's up with this? It's like he suddenly forgot how to nap. NOT COOL. What do I do about this?

Being in his crib. See above again.


More pics tomorrow!

Ben turns 3

Whoa. I am waaaaay behind on this blog. I have a new resolution to post at least once a week. And maybe even twice! With that in mind, here are some pictures from Ben's birthday on April 12. Yeah, that was a long time ago.

His crown from school.
Leftover party cupcakes. Still as good 3 days later!




Lots of great gifts from grandparents plus a trike from Joel and I, complete with a bell that MUST be rung at least once every 30 seconds or so:)
