Landon's Six Month Update

Landon...Yeesh where do I even began?  Baby Landon is becoming quite the big boy. Or atleast he thinks he is.

 

Personality

This kid is funny. I knew he would be. He does this eyebrow thing that will crack you up. It is like he is trying to flirt with you, and it gets all the ladies attention. When you talk to him, he will either stare you down or smile. You never know what you will get. He has learned to bounce himself in his bouncy chair so at any given time you can look at him and he is bouncing really hard, using his arms to propel himself. He gets going really fast too. It is his own personal trampoline and he thinks he is so cool when he does it. For some reason when he is thirsty he will fake cough. It is the only time he does it. He yells at Max when Max refuses to talk to him. Max thinks our puppy is way too loud and is somewhat scared of it. Our puppy tries to poke him in the eye and laugh. Landon loves to talk/sing as he falls asleep and it is the most precious thing. He also loves to fart and copy his daddy's sneezes. Seriously, the farts though. Stinky little
 butt he has.

Growth

At his doctors appointment on March 3rd he was 17.8 pounds and 25.5 inches.

 

 

Milestones

Baby cub can roll over(both ways). He has started to attempt to get on all fours, but even now can somehow inch his way places. Just the other day I looked down and he was sitting up with no support. I was so excited and Kevin said he had been doing that for a couple days. What?!?!? I instantly took a picture. Landon just stared at me like I was overreacting. He has really gotten into his toys as well. Before he would just kind of hold them and that was it. Now he seems to prefer certain ones and will actually sit there and play with them all. It is really cute to watch.  Right before he turned six months I touched his gums and there was a tiny little razorblade coming through his gums. So...yeah...that is always fun.

 

 

Eating Habits

Landon had been on cereals since 5 months(we skipped rice and did oatmeal, multigrain, and then whole wheat. He loved oatmeal. Liked whole wheat. And tolerated multigrain.  Once he turned 6 months we started him on peas which he was NOT a fan of. I gave him a slice of avocado to munch on and he was in love with it so I mashed it into his peas and then he ate all his peas. So I guess he is a fan of avocados. Kevin does not like avocados at all so Landon must have gotten that from me. Yay!

Sleep Habits

He origionally was sleeping with us but we got a full size bed and the space was not going to work with the three of us. I ended up on the edge of the bed and was not sleeping well. Landon refused to sleep in the pack and play that we had next to the bed(apparently I hated it as a baby as well) so I thought maybe the crib would work. Kevin had to take the doors off the hinges and the crib apart, but he managed to get the crib in our room. The first night I put him in it, he slept in it fine. Since we have brought the crib into our room, he has only slept out of it one night and that was within the first week and was because I fell asleep with him. Other than that, he has slept in his crib all night every night(he occasionally wakes up during the night for a bottle) . I am so proud of him and realize I am lucky he is a good sleeper.

 

 

Favorite Things

His toys, especially his baby olaf I got him. Sucking his fingers. Taking selfies. Pretending he is on mommy's computer when she is.(He sticks his little hand on the bottom of the keyboard and thinks he is moving the finger mousepad like I do) and going on walks.

 

 

NOT Favorite Things

Landon does not like my hysterical laugh. The laugh I do when I think something is hilarious. I think it is because he thinks I am crying or something. He is fine with my normal laugh. But if I laugh like something is hilarious, he gets a pouty lip and starts crying. He also hates to be cold( he has never liked it).

 

 

Words

I swear Landon can say Hi and Mum.
