This was a big month for Alex! His first flight, his baptism, his first class, and discovering that the world around him is so much bigger than he thought!
Height/Weight: I don't know exactly, a week ago or so he was 14 lb 1 oz. We have a doctor appointment in a few weeks. He looks pretty big, but I know he's way smaller than Colin was at his age.
Clothing size: Six months, although some three months still fit.
Diaper size: Size 2
Eating: It's been a rough month for eating for poor Alex. First we had some supply issues. We had plenty of milk in the freezer, but it was still unpleasant for everyone. We were back to tracking all of his eating and diapers for a while (which we were still doing for Colin at this age, I discovered. Man we had a lot of free time. :)) Things got back to normal and then Alex got sick and couldn't keep anything in his tummy for an entire day. Luckily, we seem to be over that and I'm hoping we can settle back into a good groove. In no time at all, it will be time for solids for this guy!
Sleeping: Alex has moved to his crib! Sort of. We put him down at night in his crib and he sleeps there until his first waking, usually around one am. After that he's been in our bed or the rock and play depending on how tired we are and how fussy he is. He's still swaddled when he's in his crib and really prefers it.
New Skills: Dive bomb rolling. Alex loves to push himself WAY up high and then do a dive roll. Cute,but kinda scary. Also, back floating! We took Alex and Colin to a parent and me swim class and he LOVED it. He floated really well on his back. He is also interacting a lot with smiles and coos, especially for his big brother.
I am so in love with this little person. I am constantly amazed at how his unique personality is already shinning through. I can't wait to see what's next!
