Guess who's 6 Months old?!

Oh, yes, Henry is! Absolutely crazy to think exactly 6 months have past since the day he entered our lives. What would we do without our little sweetheart? He is just such a pleasant, good natured little baby and has been changing so much lately. Just yesterday he started babbling away. I remember what an exciting moment it was when Bowen started 'talking' and it has been just as thrilling to hear Henry find his voice. It really jolts you into remembering that they are learning and growing every minute. In equal the time, he'll be a year old, probably walking and saying a few 'real' words. The first year is so unique and amazing and H is just the sweetest little boy we could ever ask to take that journey with! This week he also started the 'consecutive roll'. Put him down in the kitchen and 15 seconds later, he's 8 feet from where he started! He sleeps on his tummy so really enjoys spending time on his stomach. I think he'll definitely crawl in the next couple months, which will be so different since Bowen never did and was much more interested in being upright. Still not devouring the rice cereal, but in the last few days has shown more interest. As a result, we're still giving the 10:30 pm bottle and Stewart is asking daily when we can drop it! Night sleep is much better but still not surprising if he wakes. For the most part, though, he's sleeping 7 to 7 - just not as heavy in the night as we were used to with Bowen. Henry's gearing up for his very first Halloween this weekend and he's pumped about his 'bluebird' costume! More on that in the next few days.

Henry, we can not get enough of your gummy smile or wet slobbery kisses! It has been such a joy and a privilege watching you grow these last 6 months into such an amazing little baby boy. You are a light to my day and so many others. We are constantly told how calm, relaxed, sweet and adorable you are and we could not agree more. Happy, happy half birthday!!

Love love and more love... Momma, Dadda & Bowen xxxx
