Unleashing the Wanderlust Spirit: Exploring the World Through the View From Up Here

Six Month Update

Credit to Ashley Yvonne Photography

Weight/Length: He kinda slowed down this month, weighing in around 14 lbs. 8 oz. Not sure on his height or head circumference, but I will update this when we visit doctor and have a doctor’s scale.

Hair: I’m surprised his hair is getting lighter! In some of his Valentine’s day pictures he has highlights of blonde. Definitely has gotten lighter since birth. He also has some LONG hairs in the back and over his ears.

Diapers: Size 2 Honest Company and Medium Gdiapers–even though we may need to move to size 3 at night, we’ve had a couple leaks at night.

Clothing: 3-6 Months in Gap, Old Navy, and Gymboree. 6 Months in Carters, with some 9 month things here and there.

Favorite Things: Tool chest, rattle noise makers, stroller rides, swing, bath tub

Likes: He likes grabbing things with his hands, talking to people on FaceTime, going to swim and My Gym, eating, and blowing raspberries

Dislikes: He doesn’t like when he gets stuck trying to roll over. When he finally rolls over he loves it, but the process getting there he doesn’t like. He also doesn’t like when I leave him and say goodnight for his second and third naps.


Milestones: He is standing when holding on to things (obviously we are behind him), sitting up by himself, scooting backwards, scooting in circles, transferring things between hands (and into mouth)

Sleeping: Well last night he was only up once, but the night before 2 times. Nights are purely unpredictable. His naps during day are like clock work even though he fights you for maybe 15 minutes, he falls asleep and generally stays asleep for about an hour and half each time. 




Mama Thoughts:

It’s crazy to think that 6 months ago today I was preparing to have my sweet baby boy. These past few months have been challenging, exhausting, and fun al in a nutshell. I wouldn’t trade these past few months for anything. I can’t wait to watch our boy continue to grow over the next six months. We love this boy so much and couldn’t imagine our lives without him.

As we pause to give thanks, my heart is filled wit As we pause to give thanks, my heart is filled with gratitude for the amazing family I was given. I recently was blessed with a new brother-in-law and being able to celebrate my sister and him during the week of Thanksgiving was so special. Here's to the shared laughter, comforting embraces, and the unwavering support that make every day a blessing. Happy Thanksgiving! #Family #Thanksgiving
We’ve all asked our kids to clean up after they’ve played. It’s a huge mess, and they don’t even know where to start. I don’t know about you, but tasks like that make me feel overwhelmed and I ask for help from @octiclean or my husband or someone (anyone). I’m not teaching my kids how to clean their room—I’m teaching them that sometimes there are tasks that are way too hard for one person to do on their own. That their is help available, and you just need to ask. 💙
We traveled the world Wednesday, and we’re sick We traveled the world Wednesday, and we’re sick Friday. 🤒 Hear me out though—you or your child can get sick anywhere. Target, a friends house, play gym, school—the list goes on. Yes we MOST LIKELY got sick at Disney, but did we have fun doing it? Yes. After we were locked in the house for that one sickness 3 years ago, I refused to not live. We got that sickness from someone entering our own house, not even being out in the wild. We’ve been to Disney tons of times, cruises, planes, and all the fun things since and honestly we haven’t gotten sick on or from our trips. So here’s to more adventures and stronger immune systems. 😬 Also, lots of vitamin c and all the good meds, cause I don’t say no to that.

We recently moved things around in C’s room. She We recently moved things around in C’s room. She got a new mattress, new princess @potterybarn sheets, and the most perfect blanket. We went to put in her in the bed and she got so upset that she wasn’t sleeping in her crib. Thank goodness I hadn’t taken it apart—I had only moved it to the other side of the room. At this point she’s still in her crib, and still loving her sleep! I’m just here to say that whatever schedule your other kids might have been on with development or changes—it’s okay if your other child isn’t ready. They will be ready and won’t go to college sleeping in a crib. 👏
