He has a mean habit of pulling his own hair until he screams, then looking around to see who pulled his hair. At least a dozen times a day. He also gives a wicked stink-eye. ;)

Personality: You rolled over belly-to-back for the first time on 12/28/15 and Ruthie was the first one to see it! You started laughing out loud when we tickle you. You got a new exersaucer and are learning to enjoy it. Your favorite way to fall asleep for naps it by holding my finger close to your face. You are weight-bearing really well on your legs. You decided Mam bottles were acceptable. ;) You love baths and snuggling and nursing to sleep at night. You have this adorable habit of sucking your lower lip really hard when you're concentrating. You also started sucking your thumb a lot and it is the cutest thing I've ever seen. You started doing some imitating this month!

Feeds: every 3ish hours, 5x/day
Personality: Graduated to the convertible carseat (still rear-facing, of course) this morning, b/c Mommy's arm is breaking trying to carry you in that infant seat. You are so heavy! You LOVE Momma and you love to be held and talked to. Ruthie can make you laugh like nobody else. You are such a happy baby and pretty laid-back unless you're tired. You eat great (surprise surprise.) Car rides have gotten much better since you moved to the big-boy seat and can see things.

Feeds: every 3-3.5 hours, 5x/day
Personality: Finally rolled over back to belly on 2/24/16 and we all got to see it! You've been working hard on that one for weeks. You play with your hair or your ears when you eat and it's so adorable. You enjoyed your stroller for the first time while we went to the zoo. Usually Mommy wears you and we did for the first half of the trip, but then we put you in the stroller and you loved it! You're getting really good at holding toys and bringing them to your mouth and you want to chew on EVERYTHING. You have a great sense of "stranger danger" and don't like anyone unfamiliar to hold you (not that Mommy offers, hahaha.) You are very opinionated and if you don't like something, you let us all know about it.
6 months:
Weight: 18 lbs 4 ozs
Weight: 18 lbs 4 ozs
Height: 26.5 inches
Head circumference: 17.75" (good grief!)
Diapers: size 3 (those thighs are killer!)
Clothes: 9 month & a few 12 month for length.....sigh.
Shoes: 3s but he never wears them.
Teeth: 0, but I can see the bottom two moving up!
Naps: 3x/day -- two 1-1.5 hour naps and one 45-min nap, usually still every 2-2.5 hours
Sleeps: a solid 12 hours, usually from 7p-7a
Feeds: every 3-3.5 hours, 5x/day
Personality: You are so funny! You love to be "scared" with a good peek-a-boo game. We've made it six months breastfeeding - yay! I look forward to at least another six months, hopefully longer. No solids yet and I'm very happy with that - you don't need it and you aren't ready for it and you're obviously growing just fine on Momma-milk. You still think Ruthie is hilarious. You started sitting at the table in your high-chair to play with toys while we eat - you're not sure yet how you feel about that.
