7.5

Ryan is over 7 months old. Over the last 2 weeks he has changed so much. He is eating GREAT at daycare. At home he would prefer to be nursed:) He loves squash, sweet potatoes, peaches and bananas. He has also started eating "puffs". He has also mastered the "sippy" cup!

P.S. I started this post over a month ago! So much for a weekly update.

Snowman!

It snowed 4-5 inches on Monday and it has snowed another 3 inches today! We have closed early and/or opened late everyday this week so far at the wellness center. It has worked out well for me because I am sick for the 3rd time this winter with some sort of stomach bug. Ryan keeps bringing home germs from daycare and I'm the one that keeps getting sick! Yuck!!! The pictures are from Monday. The snow was perfect for building a snowman.

6 Month Stats!

Ryan weighed 16 pounds and was 25 inches long at his 6 month appointment. The BEST, MOST AWESOME, GREATEST news of all...Ryan is now sleeping through the night!!!! It started almost 2 weeks ago. After the worst night ever we finally decided it might be time to let him cry it out. He did VERY well with it. The first night he only cried 35 minutes. I am so thankful it worked and that we did have to listen to him cry for very long. Since that first night we've had a few nights when he'll wake up and cry a little but not for longer than 5-10 minutes. I haven't adjusted to sleeping through the night myself. Every morning around 4 am I'm wide awake! He is eating rice cereal must better and some days he loves his baby food. He should be crawling any day. He can get to anything he wants but right now he is scooting more than crawling. But he's close to figuring it out!
