Wake continues to change and get more fun on the daily. As each week goes by I feel like I can breathe just a little bit easier. He's growing like crazy and I find myself always a little stressed that he will wake up one morning and not fit in any of his clothes haha. I try to stock up when I can but I'm a little picky about what he wears (it's quite apparent that I'm much more concerned about what he looks like than I these days lol). Anyway this month he:
Weighed 15 pounds and 3 ounces (43rd percentile), measured 25.25 inches tall (51st percentile), and his head was 41.3 cm (37th percentile). So somehow he managed to only grow .25 inches but outgrew all of his 6 month onesies and is about to outgrow the 9 monthers? Pretty sure they measured wrong but hey, I'm just happy about his weight gain.
Wears size 2 diapers.
Wears size 6-9 month onesies and 12 month shorts and socks.
Figured out how to roll from his back to his front and LOVES to be on his belly.
Is still swaddled at night and for naps and loves it.
Sleeps in his own room at night and for naps and it's been awesome to not be on edge about waking him up all night.
Sleeps from about 8pm to 8am waking up once to eat usually.
Eats about every two hours during the day for a total of 7 or 8 feedings in 24 hours.
Takes anywhere between 5-30 minutes to eat.
Can sit up in his saucer and on our laps and hold his head on his own (he's still a little wobbly and lazy but I'm not worried about it anymore).
Loves the ABC song and sucking his fingers (and thumb) which we don't allow ha.
Keeps the bink in like a champ and usually goes right down for naps and bed.
Is just the happiest dude and hardly ever cries unless he needs something.
Typical Wake. Always has at least one digit in his mouth at all times.
I finally started putting him in shorts and shirt some days and think it's way cuter than the onesie. Too bad it's so hot and he can't last long in them.
He is mesmerized by balls and I can keep him happy for quite awhile just shaking it in front of him.
This is the outfit his grandma Dantzelle got him and it is seriously the cutest thing ever. I so wish he was going to be able to fit in it longer :/
Selfie Sunday. I am anti selfies but we seriously spend so much time in this exact position when we FaceTime my family that I had to document it even though I look like a scrounge.
Waiting to FaceTime Mimi.
Nate must have taken this picture, and put on Dora. Heaven knows I wouldn't have put on a Spanish speaking cartoon for him.
This is us on the 4th. It was a sad 4th without midnight madness, the parade, homemade root beer, grams Kathy's carnival, and fireworks but we did go to a bbq with friends (not documented) so I would rate it a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10 so I guess it could have been worse, right?
Nate's 25th birthday. He got his Cardinal shorts, an Amazon gift card and a driver (which he treated himself to about a month before). He did have to go to school that day which was a bummer but later that evening he had a softball game we all went to which was fun.
Don't know why but I just thought this was cute of him peaking over nate's shoulder haha.
