This post is about a week overdue! I went back to work on Wednesday=VERY minimal free time these days! I am thankful the boys usually take good naps and that they overlap for awhile in the afternoon so I can have a bit of time to catch up on life today!
Those were the fastest 6 months of my life! They were tiring, life changing, but mostly filled with joy, smiles and lots of giggles!
Brayden continues to be a very easy going and happy baby. He loves his laugh and play dog, his toy moose, his exersaucer, being outside (he even started to like the swings a lot), playing with Tucker, cuddling with Tucker, pretty much anything with Tucker. One of my favorite times has recently become when Tucker wakes up from his nap-Brayden and I go up to get him and B lays next to T on his bed and they cuddle. Tucker thinks it's hysterical when Brayden grabs at his face. Very cute.
He has started to eat cereal and some fruits and veggies. He eats 2T oatmeal and 1/2 tub fruit for breakfast and dinner and at dinner he eats a veggie too. So far he's had pears, apples, peas and carrots. Shockingly he LOVED the peas-almost more than the carrots! He spits up a lot more than Tucker which makes me not want to give him dark colored foods-more laundry to do!
He has dropped to 2 naps and sometimes he takes a catnap in the late afternoon/dinner time. He's been nursing/gettng a bottle 5-6 times a day as well. His usual routine is: 7 wake and nurse, 9-10:30/11 nurse/bottle. 1230/1 nurse/bottle and down for 2nd nap-2:30/3. Nurse/Bottle 3ish, (sometimes) catnap5/530 for 30 min, 6-nurse/bottle and dinner, 730/8 nurse and bed.
He has also started rolling more frequently from his belly to his back. We finally broke his swaddle habit for naps awhile back but we are still a little lazy about always not swaddling him at night-he wakes up when he's not swaddled.
We can't wait to see what this month holds!
We love you!
