The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

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.

A little story behind this picture. 📸 I asked m A little story behind this picture. 📸 I asked my son to take a picture of me and my daughter, he took ONE picture. When I asked him why he only took one picture he said well you said “A picture” and plus you look happy in this one. 💓 I am almost one year postpartum, when I saw the picture I quickly was disgusted with my deflated boobs, and just overall didn’t like it. After his comment though, my thoughts changed. I just had fun playing in the pool with the kids, and the deflated boobs I saw—they provided for my three sweet babies. My life changed when I had this sweet girl, I can’t explain it—but I want her to love her body. I want her to like the picture that her brother took because she looked happy. It’s so important that we teach our children to love themselves the way they were made. 💓
