I'm a big boy now I'm 6 months!!!!

I have a six month old! What is wrong with this picture? I looked at Colt the other day and said, "Where's my baby?!" I swear I love him more and more everyday even though I never think its possible to love him more. In the past month he has...

... said "Ma" and "Da." Only one time each, but he said it nonetheless!! I got the "Ma" on video tape and he was looking at Blake when he said "Da."

...He sits up like a big boy and plays with his toys.
...He tries to eat his feet, but his belly is too big and he gets mad.

...He sits in the high chair when we go out to eat.

...He turns all the way around in his jumperoo and works all of the toys.

...Blake says Colt hibernates and he really does. He sleeps about 12 hours a night and I even wake up before he does. I stare at the monitor thinking, "ok Colt, mommy wants to play." He always wakes up soooo happy and talks to his hands (for up to an hour) until I come get him.

...He loves to swim!! When I say kick kick kick, he smiles/laughs and kicks very good. When I say 1 2 3 he closes his eyes on the count of 1 to prepare for the dunk.

...This past week he has gone through a phase of crying when we sneeze or talk loudly and he even cried when the fire on the grill flared up at the hibachi restaurant. Blake and I thought it was funny so we'd sneeze on purpose to see if he cried. A few times he did and then he got over it.

...He is a great little shopper and laughs at all the people in the mall as they walk by. His stroller makes a great shopping cart BTW :)
...He's moving into his 9-12 month clothing and I even bought size 3 diapers yesterday :( He weighs around 19lbs and I'm not real sure how long he is yet, but we should have a Dr appt next week).

...He has the cutest little laugh!! If you haven't seen it click HERE.

...He loves his nightly walks and sometimes enjoys a quick snooze if he hasn't had a nap that day.

...He eats 2 size 2 jars of food 3 times a day with 6-8oz bottles in between.

...He takes 2...2-3 hour naps a everday (but they always get cut short because mommy has places to go and people to see)

...Still no teeth and still no crawling

Carson went through the SAME "cry at a sneeze or loud noise" phase... funny!

Can't wait to squeeze those baby thighs next week. He's so stinkin' cute.

You'll be planning his 1st birthday party in NO time mama!!
