I can hardly believe BJ is 6 months old! Where did my little baby go? Here are some updates- I'm stealing a list from a friend's blog but love it.
Nicknames: Beej, little man,
Weight & Length: 18 lbs 2 oz 26 inches
Hair: dark blonde except his bald spot int he back
Favorite food: Anything- loving solids and his breastmilk. In fact, he yelps with delight when you open the fridge- it is pretty cute. For solids he has had sweet potatoes, peas, carrots, and zucchini.
Favorite toys: Johnny jumpup, Exersaucer, The Hungry Catepillar
Favorite stuffed animal: his white lamb rattle or his giraffe rattle
Bedtime: 8:30 p.m. with a snack between 10:30-11:30 p.m.
Wake-up time: 6 a.m.
Naps: he is taking between 3-4 naps still during the day- between 45 mins to 2.5 hours long-
Favorite person: Mom and Dad (he has a huge smile when we pick him up from daycare and will start crying if it takes you too much time to get to him while getting his stuff ready)
Latest Accomplishment: Solids, rolling over (he has gone from back to belly a few times now), sitting up, sleeping with at least one arm unswaddled, 1st two teeth
Likes: eating, sleeping, playing, being social with really anyone, jumping, bouncing, splashing in the bathtub, eating books
Dislikes: getting into his car seat, waiting for food,
What gets said about BJ most often: what a happy baby he is, how big he is, his beautiful blue eyes

Other updates: BJ has gotten another cold- what a poor guy. We're hoping that all these illnesses in his first year will mean a better immune system later:) We've been doing a lot of albuterol nebs, trying to keep him from wheezing too much. Luckily he is fairly unphased by it, but occasionally acts like he is in pain after coughing a long time.
Brandon was able to go back to Omaha last weekend for our 10 year high school reunion. Crazy how time flies. He had an awesome time catching up with a lot of our high school friends. He was totally thrilled to hear so many of them were doing well. (Although he was surprised how few of them acutally brought pics of their significant others or kids).
Work has been really busy for the both of us. In fact, we got called one day from daycare to pick up BJ and we were really struggling to figure out how to make it work since we both had jam packed days, and we knew he just had a cold and needed a quick neb- luckily we were able to work out taking him over our consecutive lunch hours, getting him tuned up and taking him back.
BJ is stuggling again with nighttime sleep. It seems he was doing well but now has had one thing after another keeping him up at night- teeth, multiple colds, everything. He's had a few good nights lately, so we're hopeful they will continue.
Anyway, I'll blog more later (if I find the time) but thought I would update you on his 6 month milestone. Happy 1/2 birthday BJ- we love you more than you can imagine!
