Colton's 7 Month Update!

 

Our littlest love, Colton Allen, is 7 months old today on Valentines Day! How special . Colton loves to give me hugs and reaches for me when I'm near. It is the greatest feeling. Colton is extremely clingy to me lately! Colton recognizes his name when called!!! Also, Colton loves loves his pureés so much so, that he is creating a partial nursing strike the majority of this past month which has been stressing me the heck out if I'm being honest. Colton is still 15 pounds (and has a weight check soon at the pediatrician), and just moved up to size 3 diapers. Colton is starting to scooch backwards on the ground, hurray!!! and loves to play with Conner and his toys! Colton also loves to throw his paci and his toys and can now locate and place the paci in his mouth in his crib during the middle of the night all by himself, hallelujah! Happy Valentines Day everyone, and what an amazing day to celebrate Colton being 7 months

Colton's 6 Month Update!

What a big month, our precious Colton Allen is 6 months old!! His first half birthday today!  This month we will begin eating solids for the first time (today), we transitioned to the crib from the bassinet, and big brother potty trained.....all in the same week. We made it 6 months of exclusively breastfeeding, and I'm so so proud of us! Our next goal is making it to a year, but I'd love for us to go longer than that, like I did with Conner! Colton weighs 15 pounds and is still in size 6 month clothes and is creeping out of size 2 diapers soon. He finally has doubled his birth weight! Colton is reaching for me now, he enjoys the bouncer now, he wakes up and immediately smiles and giggles at me, and he is showing us that he is wanting to crawl. I wonder when that really will be? Colton can say dada now. Colton has major stranger danger, and he spins on his tummy while on the ground. Also this month, Colton will be starting his baby gymnastics class, just like Conner did! Huge month with our precious little guy!!
