A half of a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Six short months ago, we brought home a little bump on a log (a cute one, mind you.) With each day that passes, we watch Ben turn into more and more of a little person… you moms know what I mean. He observes and interacts and expresses his little 6 month old opinions. It’s a lot of hard work, but he makes it so much fun!
Here is an update on the milestones we’ve passed since June:
Here is an update on the milestones we’ve passed since June:
Ben’s gone on a number of road trips, and two plane rides! He is a great traveler!
 |
He started giving us smiles around 6 weeks.
 |
He slept through the night (10pm – 6am) right at 12 weeks. Consequently, I started to feel human again!
 |
Ben talks and coos and squeals. Our favorite is the “crazy cat sound”.
 |
He loved the swing (0-5 months), then he hated the swing (just recently).
 |
(This still cracks me up. Ben kept spastically knocking his paci from his mouth, then he would cry for it back. Brian thought this was a good way to solve that problem. I quickly vetoed the idea… after a picture, of course!)
He rolled over for the first time (front to back) in October.
 |
He LOVES his Exersaucer… especially chomping on the seal.
 |
He became a pro at rolling both ways at the beginning of December.
 |
By the end of December, he was sitting up on his own!
 |
He is just starting to eat solid foods. After each bite, he says “mmmm”. Precious.

Happy Half Birthday, Ben!
