6 Months!

My sweet Landon-man, you are 6 months old today.  I can not even believe it, as I know I say every month, but these montly posts seem to be happening much more frequently now.

 

This month Landon has learned to sit up pretty much entirely on his own, eat foods, got his bottom two toofers, and has gotten into the groove of a schedule.  He ADORES, I mean ADORES, his sister.  She can say "Hi Bubby" to him and the giggle that comes out of his mouth is a little too cute for words.  Landon loves when we spin in a circle saying "a-du-da-du-da-du --- boo!"  That cracks him up...why, we aren't sure, but he has real deal belly laughs on that one! 

Landon is such a laid back little boy, just like his daddy.  He is really settling into such a happy man.  He does whine like nobody's business when he drops something or can't reach a toy that he wants.  It's pitiful, but hilarious at the same time. 

Landon loves his jumperoo, sitting on the floor playing with toys, sitting in his high chair to eat and drink water from his sippy cup, play on his playmat while mommy blogs ;), taking baths, and hanging out in his sister's big girl bed. 

We have a BOY on our hands too.  One day he will be mortified, but I think it's pretty cute...first he loves to bang his sippy cup all over the place and splash the water everywhere.  He is soaked by the time we are finished with his dinner!  He has also "found himself" when we are changing his diaper or in the bath, and giggles at each grab.  ha!

We go to the doctor on Monday for Landon's 6 month visit and I can't wait to see how much he weighs.  He is wearing 12-18 month clothes and size 3 diapers (only until we finish this pack and then we're moving onto the 4's).  He is just getting too big!

Landon has had SUCH A GREAT day today!  He SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT...we're talking from about 7:00pm (waking up a couple times between 7:30 and 8 for binky, tylenol, and sucking of the nose as he's getting over his second cold) until 7am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Keith and I woke up at 6 and we asked if either had gotten up with Landon and neither did...can I tell you how rested we both feel today?!!?  It's wonderful!!  However, I won't get too excited, but we're hoping we're making progress.  So he woke up at 7, we played in bed with sister for awhile, he chilled in the bumbo while I took a shower, he had a bottle, played in his jumperoo, took a great morning nap from 9-10:30, got dressed so we could meet sister's friends at storytime and the park on this BEAUTIFUL 70* day, had another bottle, played in jumperoo, snuggled with momma, took a great afternoon nap from 1:30-3:10, suffered through a photo shoot with mommy for his 6 month photo shots, and is currently lounging on his playmat while I type away.  :)  He will eat dinner around 5:30, (no rice anymore, just a container of food), play, bath, and be in bed at 7.  That is pretty much our typical day...more for my own memory than your personal enjoyment ;)

Landon man is just such a sweet sugar!  We love him, and those cheeks, SO much!!  I can't believe how much he has changed in the past 6 months, now just 6 more months and he'll be one...unbelieveable!!
