Half Birthday Update!

Milo is the big 6 months today! Here are some things about him:

  • He's sleeping well through the night with only 1-2 feedings.
  • He loves to chew on absolutely anything. Especially plastic cups.
  • He is a rolly-polly kid now! I think I've seen him go 3 or 4 consecutive rolls just today. 
  • He always is willing to taste new things. He loves ketchup. We haven't really found a fruit he loves but we'll keep up the search.
  • He is definitely in 6-9 month or just 9 month clothes and fits in some 12 month stuff. 
  • He's getting really good at sitting up on his own! 
  • His highchair is definitely a great chill zone.
  • He is super interested in the animals and we can't wait to take him to the zoo this summer. 
We took some super cute pictures of him for his half birthday. He's seriously photogenic.


I'll upload more as I get them edited.

As for the holidays, we were busier than cuss but had a really great few weeks spending some much needed time with our family. Milo has been a real trooper with all these non-routine days and random naps but hopefully we'll get back into the swing of things soon.

Milo slept all through the night on Christmas Eve Eve and it was a Christmas MIRACLE! (He's done it before, but it's been a while.)

So I did write that on his actual half birthday but you know... Whatever. Now it's nearly midnight, Milo's been awake for about an hour and wouldn't stop crying in his sleep for 2 hours before that and I've tried a trillion things to try and get him back to sleep. I guess this is what we get for straying from normalcy for so long.

The moral of this story is STICK TO THE ROUTINE: GET HIM TO BED ON TIME.
I said he was a trooper? More like we both were. And now I'm paying for it in lost sleep and streams of mental swear words.

Send prayers that we can get back to things or else someone will soon be consumed in the belly of unhealthy eating and uncontrollable laziness. (that would be me.)
