Weston- 6 months

We can skip ahead 3 months, right??
For good measure, here are his 4 month.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 and 5 month pictures
 
 
and for 6 months, because its huge, because he's half way to 1, because he wont stop growing, We went outside and snapped a few good pics.
 
 
Oh my precious boy. What did we ever do without him?? I often find myself in awe that we went 5.5 years without a baby, seems like he's been here forever.


I am soakin up every ounce of him that I can! 6 months is such a fun age! I like to call it the calm before the storm...  I .e. before baby moves. ;)
 
Quick update on the eye- We saw the ophthalmologist in October, everything is still great with his eyes, so we'll continue to tape it open, and now add patching for 2 hours a day. So far I've not seen any improvement, but that's what we will do for the time being. The Dr. said that we would discuss surgery when he is 1. I hate, hate, hate the idea of that, but I am getting to the point of wanting it fixed!
 
-He's sitting up like a pro.
- 18. 5 lbs of love
-breastfeeding like a pro
- has had some real food, has a love/hate relationship with it most of the time.
-Size 9-12 month clothes
-loves to blow spit bubble
-often makes the sssss sound
- Not at all sleeping through the night. Still up 2-3 times (but for some reason, I am ok with this)
- There is no shortage of love for this little man. I'm forever thankful for these 3 and what they mean to Weston. Its a precious, precious relationship that they all have.

 

 
-We have loved adding Weston to our yearly traditions, he just fits right in!
First trip to the pumpkin patch

 
Helping mom work the pumpkin patch at church.
 
-First Halloween. I had other plans for him this Halloween, but when the Dr. prescribed and eye patch, there was no doubt that he must be a pirate for Halloween!!!!

 
 
-First Thanksgiving is in the books as successful! He chowed down on mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, and cranberry sauce, with a little whipped cream for dessert. Oh how you see things a little differently as you get older... It was pure joy to watch him eat!

 
Weston (all of them, actually) also got pretty much the coolest gift ever in 2 new cousins! Three boys 5 months apart is gonna be some good times!! We are so thankful to the Lord for the blessing of these sweet boys! Lots of praying for all 3 of them!
