Wyatt turned 6 months on 2/2/14. 6 months has flown by and Wyatt definitely has a personality all his own. He loves his brother and looks adoringly at him anytime Gavin is in the room. Gavin can also make him laugh like no one else. It is so sweet but it also makes me sad when Gavin doesn't act the same in return. Gavin loves him and is always sweet but just isn't on the same level, and I know it's completely normal, in fact I'm really surprised at how much Gavin interacts and loves on Wyatt because it sure wasn't like that with me and my little brother according to my parents :-).
Some of the things Wyatt is doing now, honestly I have waited so long to post this I really can't remember when he started most of it. I am so not on top of things like I was with Gavin.
- Rocking on all fours, he is super close to crawling. His main way of moving is by rolling though and man is he fast!
- Sitting without support
- He makes all kinds of noises with his mouth
- He has gone through and thoroughly enjoyed every fruit, vegetable, mixed meal stage 2 baby food they make. He looks very longingly at our food and tries to grab it every chance he gets.
- He has super human strength. He can grab nearly anything and it takes a lot to get it back out of his hands. He is also super quiet and sneaky so you have to watch him or you never know what he will end up with. I am not excited about what this will entail when he starts crawling...
- His legs are really strong as well, he can stand up when holding onto something so for all I know he is going to start cruising before he crawls. I keep waiting to walk into his room and see him standing up in his crib...
- His favorite song is Old MacDonald, I can be sure of this because this is what Gavin and I have to sing in the car on the way home to get him to stop crying, Ha! He has stopped napping on the way home from daycare so he is a bit more grouchy at night than he used to be.
- He takes 2 naps a day still one at 9 for about an hour and then a good 2 hr one at 1 and is in bed for good at 7.
- He is still on the same amount of formula - 7.5 ounces 5 times a day. His solid food has increased though at breakfast he has 2 Tbl of cereal with a jar of fruit and then at lunch he eats 1.5 jars of veggies/fruit and dinner consists of more cereal and a jar of veggies or fruit.
- He LOVES baths!! Clay has started putting just a couple of inches of water in the tub and laying him down. As soon as he hits the water he gets this HUGE grin on his face and starts splashing around like a maniac. I would post the video of him which is super cute but since he is naked I get kinda worried about sickos seeing it.
A couple of pictures from his teachers of my little ham.
We had a couple of days of really cold weather in January. I never thought I would have a use for this but I sure was glad we had it when we had those record cold days. Thanks Anna!! And isn't he just the cutest thing!
Hanging out at the bowling alley watching his Mama actually break 50, which has to be a record!
He is already like Gavin in the fact that now he refuses to be still for his monthly pictures, I tried to enlist the help of big brother this month without much more success. I did get some cute ones though.
They must be teaching yoga at school because this is definitely a downward dog...
Wyatt's 6 month checkup and shots were about 2 weeks late but since I was so late in posting this it gets to be included :-)
Weight - 19.12 lbs - 75th percentile
Height - 27 inches - 75 percentile
Head - 17 inches....25 percentile - He definitely go this from his Daddy because Gavin and I have monster size noggins!
