Weight & Length: Sawyer is holding steady at 23 pounds. He stays on the go all the time! His length is about 30 inches.
Sleeping: Finally back to sleeping all night!! Yay! During the week when we go to work, we usually have to wake him up to get him ready. On the weekends, he usually sleeps in till 8 or 9. It is so wonderful to sleep all night again! He seems happier and I know I am too! When he is sleepy he always plays with his ears. (I have been meaning to add that on here for months, but keep forgetting. I try so hard to remember everything, even the little things because he has grown so fast, faster than I could have ever imagined! And I want to cherish every memory, every cute little thing he does or says.)
Eating: Drinking mommy's milk every 3-5 hours, eats 3 meals a day, and generally eats 2-3 snacks. This month I made him roast beef, spaghetti squash, red potatoes, spinach, corn, and cheese. He liked the corn the most and the cheese the least. He loves his snacks....yogurt bites, dried fruit, and puffs. He could eat them all day. We are breaking away from a lot of the pureed foods and eating more bite size pieces. He loves feeding himself, of course I get teary eyed because he is becoming more independent.
Diapers: Size 3, when we run out these I might try a size 4.
Clothing: 9-12 months and pulled out some of his summer 12 month outfits
Hair: growing, growing, growing.....he will probably be getting a hair cut before his first birthday
Eyes: Medium blue
Personality: I know I have said this before, but he loves dancing and music!! He is always dancing, clapping, and singing. He is also developing a little bit of a temper. If he has something he isn't suppose to have and we take it away he will let his unhappiness be known, luckily he recovers quickly. Other than the occasional meltdown he is a happy, happy baby. He is playing with his toys more and understands the concept of many of them. He will pick up my cell phone and put it up to his mouth and say hello. It's amazing how much they pick up on and understand how things work.
Milestones:
- Took his first steps
- Still only 2 teeth
- Saying more words...he points at things and says "look" or "that"
- Identifying parts of his face
- Identifying certain objects
Firsts: We went camping for the first time at Yogi Bear campgrounds. He loved driving the golf cart and playing outside. Sawyer went for his first boat ride at the lake. At Jordyn's birthday party, he bounced on a trampoline, he really enjoyed that...smiled and laughed the whole time. He went to his first show, Disney's Pirates and Princesses. He loved when Mickey & Minnie came out, he pointed and ooooed and aahhhed with excitement.
Adventures this month: Celebrated lots of friends & families birthdays.
