6 months

Oh my is he really half a year already? This little guy brings a smile to my face every day. Right after he was born and my mom left I was petrified. I had no idea how I was going to do this all by myself (being that Jeff was in school) and I really didn't think I could. Being his mom is everything I ever expected and then some! It took a couple of months to trust my gut and LOTS of tears but man I wouldn't change any second of being a mom.
Stats: 
Height: 28 1/4 inches 95%
Weight: 14.12 8%
Head: 44 centimeters 58%

Talon,
You are growing so fast little man. I forgot to post your milestones at 4 months so I will do that now and then your 6 month. At 4 months you:
You snore
You can hold your own bottle
You watch and reach for whatever I eat or drink
Your hair is growing in
You have been sleeping in your crib for a month now
You love diddy and you smile at him all the time
You have started formula
You are taking 3 naps a day now
I am pretty sure you know who mom and dad are!


At 6 months your now:
Are very independent
You want to grab everything
Everything goes straight to your mouth
You have started solid foods at about 5 1/2 months
I think you may be putting on weight
You only nurse twice a day now and get bottles for the rest
You can sit on your own for a little bit
You figured out how to hold yourself up while standing by holding onto the back of a chair or table
You sleep from about 9:30 to 8:00
You get bored with your toys
Bauer makes you giggle now whenever he is around
Mommy's phone is your favorite toy
You can push up on your arm or knees but not both yet
You sleep with your bum in the air
when you're just sitting on my lap or eating you cross your feet
Best of all you get excited when you see mommy or daddy!


I love your little personality and how quick you are figuring things out. There are so many different sounds you make and you definitely know how to get our attention. I feel like you are constantly changing, we stuck you in a door jumper and you loved it, but like everything else you get bored quick so we have to move on. I'm not sure i'm ready for you to be mobile yet but I know my days are numbered. You are the cutest kid and I love my little guy and Daddy sure loves his Minnie me. We are so lucky to be your parents!
Love,
Mommy
