Today Garrison is 6 months old. Half a year, y'all!! I seriously don't know where the time has gone!
And what an incredible 6 months it's been. I am the happiest I've ever been in my life thanks to one special little boy. I think I can speak for Bryan and say that he feels exactly the same way. Seriously, this parenting stuff is awesome.
So here are some things he's up to these days...
*When he's on his belly he's got the whole 360 degree turn thing down
*He loves to jump, especially when people hold him. He hasn't gotten into jumping in the doorway jumper yet...I'm sure that's coming soon!
*He's doing this new thing where he's getting on his hands and toes...looks almost like he's gonna do push ups!
*He's also getting on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth...won't be long until he figures out how to crawl!
*He laughs like crazy when Bryan and I play with him
*He consistently sleeps 11 hours a night (THANK YOU GOD!)
*He's very social - doesn't mind being passed around and smiles at pretty much everyone
*When I hold him he turns himself around so he can see what's going on. I can just tell he wants to be moving around himself rather than someone carrying him.
*Oh! I almost forgot! He's eating solids! On Halloween he had his first rice cereal from a spoon (we have been putting some in his bottles at daycare to thicken his feeds for his reflux). He has caught on to this whole eating thing very well. Bryan and I aren't surprised ;) So far, he's had mashed bananas, applesauce, pears, and avocado. He sure loves his pears!
We love you sooooooo much Garrison! Happy 6 months!!
Well, I'm going to go enjoy my boy's half birthday today. I hope you all have a wonderful day! Oh, and I'm planning on posting an update on the seizures this week as well.
I just love the face he's making in this one. He's quite expressive...I wonder where he gets that from!?
