Could it be ... Silas has already passed six months?!
When I sit down and think about it .. it does not even seem possible.
But here we are at the half way point ... and he is just the sweetest
little man! We had our six month check up this past Tuesday and he
passed with flying colors I guess you could say ... 18 pounds 10 oz ..
29 inches long.. Five teeth...clapping his hands ... rolling and scooting
all around...sitting all by himself ...loves to play peek-a-boo...and at last today was able to drink a bit
of water from his sippy cup. This is a huge task we hope to learn soon.
Silas refuses a bottle and pacifier , While this is wonderful in many
ways ... it also makes it hard in others. So I am looking forward to him mastering the cup so that I may be able to step out for a bit.
He was very proud of himself and laughed as he was able to actually get a drink ..
So this will be a game for the weekend :)
He has not been feeling his best since our last round of shots. Coughing ..runny nose .. the low grade fevers off and on. Sleep ... well , he really has not mastered that. Unless of course he is on my lap and we are sitting upright .{ sigh*} That is getting a bit old... The doctor says not to nurse him when he wakes and to just lay him down...... sure , that is about as fun as putting a cat into a tub of bath water. Not going to happen!
But all and all he is doing great. Such a little character with his full head of hair and big blue eyes. He is so giggly and silly most of the time. And he gives the best hug squeeze ever:)
So far so good ... can't wait to see what the next six months bring!
