6 Months!

Our little miracle guy is 6 months old!!  I was walking with him yesterday morning thinking about how long and short six months have been.  I was praising and thanking God for the miracles that he has done in Leo's body.  I could not imagine six months ago that we would be here today with this happy, healthy, incredibly smiley, vocal guy.  We love him more and more each day!  I am working incredibly hard to savor each moment and not let one day get away.  Even the days that start at 5:30 am. . .
 

I do not have stats yet but I will on Monday!
6 month likes: 
The Cobbers!

 Eating big guy food: Cereal and sweet potatoes so far!

 Chilling on the steps like a big guy:
 Being a hunk!
 "flying"
 Rolling over
His nuk and taggie
Eating
Reaching for toys, faces, and whatever else is in reach
Putting everything in his mouth!
Napping during the day (most days!)
Dislikes:
Sleeping through the night consistently
Waiting to eat once given gas drops
Burping
Sitting/Laying still
Keeping poop inside his diaper
Being alone for too long

This has been a BIG month for us!  Leo changes day by day and it is so fun to watch.  In the last month he has started: eating cereal, napping better and sleeping better at night, reaching for things with two hands, sucking on his hands and anything else he can get, rolling over, putting himself to sleep for naps, blowing raspberries with his lips, yelling, giggling, and smiling ALL the time!

Leo, we love you!  We are blessed to be your parents and learn all of the things you are teaching us!  I did read a pretty sweet card today though.  It said: "You think you're cute waking up at the butt crack of dawn and everything.  Remember, one day you will be a teenager and paybacks suck!"  Just kidding. . . kind of :-)
