{Grayson:: 6 Months}

Dear Grayson,
You are already 6 months old and I can not believe it. You are becoming more and more fun to play with everyday. You think your big brother is super silly {which he is}. He is VERY good at making you laugh and is always willing to help mommy with you. Since you are sick right now and have a super runny nose he LOVES to help wipe your nose and drool for me.

You have such a happy spirit about you. You have been sick for almost 2 weeks and yet you still always have a smile on your cute chubby face
You are doing awesome with tummy time - most days. You can even scoot backwards about 2 feet and twist 180 degrees before either rolling over or getting too mad that you can no longer reach your toys
You LOVE to jump in your exersaucer. You will jump and play with your toys on it for over an hour at a time. This comes in handy with dinner making for me
We started you on solids a few weeks ago for dinner and most days do think that's pretty great
You love to play patty cake
You are not very keen on your car seat or the Ergo
You love chilling in the stroller being outside
We are still unsure what color you hair and eyes are going to be. They both change depending on the light you are in
You love bath time and have even taken a few with your brother
You can almost sit up on your own. You will do it for a few seconds before crashing
You like to play with Benjamin on the play mat. You think its fun to hold his hand - he is NOT a fan of it
You are a drool king. I keep thinking you must be cutting teeth but I still can not feel anything. So who knows
You have started sleeping through the night. Not all by yourself - we made you cry it out a few nights and now we are all loving life a LOT more now that we are getting some sleep around here
You got to swing at the park for the first time this week and you LOVED it! I think you are going to be just like your brother and want to swing for hours if I let you
You are still taking occasional bottles - this makes me SUPER happy!
You love being passed around to all of mine and daddy's friends
We have all started calling you Gray baby instead of baby Gray - Ryker started this
You are a grabber. You want anything and everything you can get your hands on
You still have SUPER kicky feet. I cant wait for it to be warm enough for no socks. I am sick of trying to keep them on your feet. I now understand why people don't put shoes on their babies. You never keep them on {Ryker never kicked off his socks or shoes}
