You eat every three-and-a-half to four hours. When you are at daycare, I really try to get them to stick to the four hour mark since I only get to pump twice while I am gone during the day. You sleep from around 10:30 or 11:00 until 6:30 when I wake you up to eat before school. Our morning routine consists of me getting ready, getting Emmy ready and then feeding you at the table while we eat breakfast. So far that seems to be working out for you.
You can push up on your stomach for a long time, you can roll, but you won't unless you are mad, you can annihilate a bottle, you try to stand up by yourself and push off if we are holding you, you can (still) hold yourself up in our arms. I'm pretty sure that I could carry you around on my hip and you would be fine. I'm still enjoying the close snuggles though so I carry you around close to my chest.
You traveled to Dallas this month on your first family vacation. You visited a water park, the downtown Dallas area, the Fort Worth Zoo, the stockyards, and other places. You were an excellent traveling companion. Even though it was as hot as Hades, you were content to go with the flow and see all of the sights. There were a few times that I got nervous with you in the heat so we gave you some water from a straw and put some cool compresses here and there. You were fine, but Mommy worried.
As you probably got from earlier comments, you started daycare this month too. Those ladies are enthralled with you and you are pretty sweet on them too. I was much better when it was time to leave you and I almost made it out the door without shedding some tears. A few well meaning comments from one of Emmy's teachers sent me over the edge. You are fine though, and I know that getting to be apart some is the best for both of us.
You like: being held, smiling at people, looking/staring at everything around you, watching animals move around (the zoo was awesome for you), being swaddled at night, eating like a big boy, lying and playing with your toy gym, and talking and playing with your sister (other than me she might be your favorite).
You dislike: Being hot and sweaty (August was a bummer for you), waking up before you are ready, being startled, not being fed quickly enough, waking up alone, mosquitoes, and getting out of the pool if it is already cool outside.
You eat: green beans (1s), water, and milk. (We are living on the edge here.)
You made it through big changes this month Buddy, and we are so proud of you!
