He is starting to pull his knees up under him but he just scoots backwards. It mostly annoys him that he can't go forwards. He can ever so slightly inch forward when he stretches with one hand and then the other if there is something in front of him that has caught his attention. But mostly he rolls around and then sits up to go where he wants. He isn't super mobile but enough that we have to keep the floors clear of little things that aren't good for the babes!
He has been super happy lately. He doesn't seem to be teething at this time and the last "teething' spell didn't produce any teeth so we still get to enjoy his completely gummy smile! So adorable!
The kids still love to love on him. Lillie is getting especially good at helping out with him. She loves to hold him and especially in public where she can show him off. And probably show off her "mommy" skills!
His sleeping is not super great. He eats 1-2 times a night and sometimes will wake up even once or twice besides those and I try to just give him his paci to appease him. But he usually sleeps better the rest of the night if I just go ahead and take the time to feed him the first time or two he wakes.
He really likes our bed. If he is having a bad night and I can't get him to sleep well, all I have to do is cuddle him right in between Matt and I and he will go right to sleep. I try to let him do that too often, but I kinda like it, knowing he is just growing so quickly! And he isn't wiggly to that is nice! He is just so sweet and cozy by us. Matt forgets he is there so doesn't really like him in there for fear he squish him! Haha! Well I guess it isn't really funny, but you know =)
We found out that he actually travels quite well! We made a 6 hour drive to Missouri for my Grandpa's funeral and he did much better than Zethan ever did. Or does for that matter. We just had to stop to feed him and let him be free from his carseat for a little and then he traveled well the rest of the time. There and back both! We were proud of our little guy.
He mostly takes two naps a day. One in the morning around 9:00-11:00 and one in the afternoon from about 1:00-3:00. But those times can vary greatly actually. But that's a rough estimate. And sometimes he will take a little power nap then late afternoon/early evening. He goes down for night around 8:30.
He is currently in 9-12 month clothes and this size he has stayed in the longest out of all the sizes. But he is going to need to be bumped up to 12-18 month clothes pretty soon. He weighs about 21 pounds.
We moved him from his cradle to a pack n' play. He was outgrowing his little cradle and then he decided that he would try out pulling himself up on a laundry basket. So it was time to get out of the short-sided cradle. And it is only a pack n play because we haven't taken the time to set the crib up! We never got around to setting it up for Zethan either! Ha! And besides, then he will be used to it for vacation time this summer! Yay!
He can feed himself little puffs and pieces of things no. He has gotten good at picking those little things up with his thumb and finger. If is means getting food into his mouth-he is all over it!
Still planning on not having another sonogram to
check on his tumor until he is about a year old. So nothing has changed on that front! We are still praising God for his many blessings on our family!
