Noah bear is now 6 months old!!! It is hard to believe we have arrived at half a year already. The time has passed VERY quickly!! I am sad and don't want him to grow up so fast but also am loving his age. He can now sit up on his own, is eating all sorts of baby food fruits and veggies (stage 2 foods), is moving around on his belly reaching for toys, babbles alot, and LOVES to watch every move his sister makes!! He really loves to sit next to her and grab at her hair and laugh! They also hold hands and smile at each other. It really is such an an amazing feeling watching them smile at each other as they are forming a bond they will carry through life!
At Noah's 6 month appointment today he weighed in at 19 pounds, 6.5 ounces. He was 80% for weight, 90% for length, and his head is off the charts!!! I had been talking to Susanna about how he would have to get shots today and we needed to help distract him and help him feel better afterwards. When the time came and he was given his shots she quickly jumped up and started dancing saying "Watch me Noah, I'm dancing". This was her distraction technique and it was ADORABLE!!! And it actually worked too, what a thoughtful big sister :)
We have had a hot couple of weeks lately so the kids have been cooling off the best that they can. Popsicles and rides in Daddy's Jeep are Susanna's favorite!
Noah, hasn't had a popsicle yet, but looks like he is ready to borrow the Jeep for bit.
We have all been fighting colds this week and the Dr did notice some fluid in his ears. By the end of today he was refusing his bottle, smacking at his ear, and overall pretty cranky. So we are now treating him with antibiotics and we hope this helps.
Noah and Miguel have been pretty excited to watch the World Cup. Although I don't watch much soccer, its the only sport Miguel really watches and it makes Noah pretty happy, so I can't complain.
Oh, did I mention he's teething too? His front bottom teeth are in and you can tell he wasn't happy when they were pushing through. This last pic is a good "teething" pic.....
