Jude’s Six Months Old!

March 13, 2014 by Aliesha

Look at that big guy!  Jude is growing and changing so much each day and it is really fun to watch.

Some milestones:
-smiles for the camera!
-still nurses exclusively (i.e., hasn’t started solids yet)
-grabs everything
-thinks his #1 mission in life is to eat my hair (ewww!)
-weighs 20.5 lbs.
-“plays” with some toys now, like Sophie
-might be teething, since he’s drooling constantly, waking up in the night, and experiencing his first diaper rash
-can roll both directions, but doesn’t do it a lot
-puts weight on his feet when you stand him up
-likes to blow raspberries (and thinks it’s funny)
-lights up whenever we smile at him
-goes to bed at 10:30 (night owl!), but we’d like to make that earlier…
-sucks all his fingers without favoritism
-enjoys the sunshine (who doesn’t?)
-loves to be worn in the Boba

We are thankful for our cuddly, growing boy!  Can’t believe he is already halfway to his first birthday!

    Reed is 17 mo. old and weighs only 25lbs? IF THAT, he may be less than that honestly. Judes a chunk! <3 it!

    Yeah, I’m sure Holland is maybe 19 pounds at 11 months :). It’s amazing how different babies are! He is such a cutie!
