Too big!


It's only been two weeks since I posted about Seth's 6 month "birthday", but it feels like I already have a completely different boy on my hands!

He is officially sitting up. Bath time just became a lot more fun! 

 

We got his new cup in the mail and he is learning to love water! 

We splurged and got him a new carrier.....
The wrap we used when we was little just wasn't cutting it for us anymore. It took too long to put on, was way too hot and constricting and it didn't feel like it supported him very well anymore. I thought for sure I knew which one we wanted to get next, but after trying on 4 different ones, we ended up with the Chimparoo Trek. I absolutely LOVE it and so does Seth! It is so lightweight and comfortable which is just what we need in SC. We took it out for a couple hours this weekend and I never got sore or hot. And as much as he loves being outside, Seth just sat there and took it all in! 

When we hold onto his hands he knows exactly what he is supposed to do and just starts walking along! I know that is a really silly thing to "brag" about, but I can't even believe my eyes! What happened to my baby? He has also transitioned from three naps to two. Sigh*- how do I slow time down?!? Anyways, we went to the doctor on Saturday for his 6-month well check and he weighed in at 15 pounds 4 ounces (He was 12 pounds 11.4 ounces and we jumped from the 4th percentile to the 8th! LOL) and was 27 inches long (He was 24.75 and we jumped from the 24th percentile to the 57th!) 

I am stuck in this moment where I want him to stay little forever but yet I love watching him learn and grow! I keep telling Jeremy that I am going to miss his little gurgle talks when he actually starts saying words. And I miss when he was itty bitty and would just sleep on me forever. All the cuddles. He must have known because he fell asleep on me this morning and I soaked it in before laying him down <3 I know each stage is an adventure and brings a whole new batch of things to enjoy and I am trying really hard to be in the moment and not miss what used to be or long for what's to come!
