6 MONTHS, WHAT??

Yes crazy I know this "little" man of mine is 6 months old. Time has gone by so fast, and yet is seems like I don't remember a time that I was not being puked on. We have more Specialists appointments booked in the future to see why this 24/7 spitting up will not stop and why he is struggling to eat his real food. With that this post is about Wade and the many wonderful things about him so here is all about Wade....

-He weighs about 18 lbs of pure muscle. I am not joking this kids muscles are unreal.

- With that being said he was army crawling by 4 1/2 months, and is now sitting all by himself and crawling all over the house, he can get wherever he wants. He is even trying to pull himself up onto furniture.

- And where does he want to get too, TOYS!!! This boy is such a boy. Muscles, toys, muscles, toys, and again more toys. He can play with toys all day long, if he is not eating, napping or wanting to snuggle with his mom, he is playing with any toys he can get his hands on. I am so excited to see as he becomes a toddler what this obsession with toys will bring.

- My heart aches as you see the pain this poor little boy is in, I can't imagine what it would be like to throw up all the time, he has never fully held down a single bottle, unless he falls asleep and then we put him to bed. As we are introducing foods now it is even worse, formula and food being spit up is no fun. His poor tounge is constintely in the way when we try and feed him food and it will not let him properly swallow, he is the biggest mess on the planet after he eats.

- He loves his baths, he loves to splash the water and play with the bath toys.

- His smile is to die for, It is hard to get a smile out of him and he makes me work for it, but it is so worth it. I would watch him smile all day if I could.

- He loves to talk in his deep raspy voice, and he does this funny little talk when he is ready to be picked up. It is deep and constant and it sounds like he is saying "Hey, hey, hey, hey" It is cute in the beginning and then he really turns the volume on and you then want to make it stop.

- We have lucked out with another great sleeper. He is sleeping anywhere from 9 to 11 hours straight at night, and will sleep anywhere for naps. It is so nice to finally have a snuggler. Especially for church on sunday and at night when I have had a long day of being spit up on, when he falls asleep in my arms and we cuddle for a good 30 minutes, nothing beats that.

- I love this little boys personality, sweet, snuggley, loves to play, and I think once we can get past the pain he is having he is gonna be one happy, fun, and crazy adventures little man. I am excited for summer and getting outside lots to play, we have been outside as much as possible and so far he loves the grass and swings, and the wind doesn't even bother him that much.
