6 Months Old!

Matthew

Weight: 15 lb 4 oz

Likes:

• Having silly songs sung to him. He enjoys it even more if you bounce him around while singing.
• Eating baby food
• Playing with his toys - his favourite are his links, his Tigger beanie baby, his mirror toy, and any toy that he can spin
• Jumping in his jolly jumper - he can jump for an hour easy!
• Getting undressed - he loves being naked!
• Splashing in the bath tub
• Sucking/chewing anything that can be put in his mouth

First time being fed baby food!

Dislikes:

• Having his shirt put on over his head - he cries EVERY TIME!

Accomplishments:

• Sitting
• Finding hands and feet
• Playing toys with two hands

Clothes Size:

• Typically 3-6 months, but some 6-9 months (sleepers)
• Huggies/Pampers size 2

Kayla

Weight: 16 lb

Likes:

• Rough-housing with Daddy
• Having funny faces made at her
• Playing toys - her favourite are Matthew's blue dog (the ears crinkle when you grab it, and the dog's ears are longer than her cat's ears and so they are more fun to chew), her cloth caterpillar book (the last page has butterfly wings out of the fabric that crinkles), and her duck rattle.
• Standing up to play toys - why sit when you can stand?
• Splashing in the bath tub
• Sucking/chewing anything that can be put in her mouth
• Sleeping on her side, often with her Precious Moments beanie baby from Auntie Courtney
• People-watching.

First time being fed baby food!

Dislikes:

• Eating baby food
• Having her shirt put on over her head - she cries EVERY TIME!
• Being forced to have tummy time (likely because she feels restricted to what she can do - see next point)
• Being a baby. Kayla wants to grow up and be able to do everything. She is often frustrated when she can't figure out how to do something.

Accomplishments:

• Rolling over from front to back, and back to front
• Sitting
• Finding hands and feet
• Playing toys with two hands
• Starting to use her knees

Clothes Size:

• Typically 3-6 months, but some 6-9 months (sleepers)
• Huggies/Pampers size 2

Happy 1/2 Year Birthday, Matthew and Kayla!

We couldn't imagine life without you guys!
