This is a summary of Spear's 7th month of life which spanned the entire month of June. He was 6 months old during this month! Eating: Well. The day arrived. It was truly time for me to get my butt in gear and start feeing Spear some solids! I really put it off as long as I could haha. It's not my fav and it's def a stage that makes me glad to be DONE with babies moving forward. One last that I'm not getting teary eyed about for sure! With all my babies I've always used Take and Toss cups for their sippy cups . I've always been happy with how they've held up, how easy they were for the kids to manage, and never had any major issues regarding spills or anything. But I've had SO MANY people swear by the Munchin 360 Trainer that I wanted to try it this time around. Last kid...might as well try out the latest and greatest while I can right? I swear this cup is like invented by aliens. I don't get the science behind it or how it actually works or ho...
Our precious Spear turned 6 months old on June 1st! I use What to Expect the First Year to see where he's at in his milestones and development and I purchased his monthly stickers here :) Yall. Has half a year flown by or whhhhhat?!?! I cannot believe it was 6 months ago that he was born!!!
This is a summary of Spear's 6th month of life (the entire month of May). He was 5 months old during this month. Eating: At this stage in parenting Spear I'm really sad about not nursing him. I know it was the best choice for everyone involved and I can't fathom actually breastfeeding him. Especially during those tender days in the hospital! But life is easier now with him. He's on a smooth schedule. He eats well. He's happy and content. This is the sweet spot of nursing a baby and it's when I'm really missing it. I still love the snuggles with him while feeding but it's simply not the same as nursing! He is taking 2 6 oz bottles a day (the first two of the day) then I offer between 6-8 oz of breastmilk at his 3:00 feeding and give 8 oz for his nighttime bottle. He went through a period this week where he was fussier with his bedtimes and was fussy right after feeding so I bumped his 6 oz bottles up to 8 oz for a few days and it must have been a ...
May didn't have enough fluff for Kye to come close to justifying an entire monthly summary for him. Of course he had a GREAT month...and made THE most decision of his LIFE that month :) So I'm just sticking a few things about him in this post and then mostly covering Britt's May!
All of our family fun from May:

This post covers Spear's entire 5th month of life which was the full month of April. He was 4 months old during this month!
All about Tessie from April! Tess LOVES to read. She loves books in general. Carrying them around, looking through them, being read to, and reading herself. I love her love of reading and hope it's something that continues as she gets older. I love that all of our kids love books! Always carrying a book and totally entertains herself everywhere she goes! She brought me Spear's Bible and asked me to read the WHOLE thing to her. Shocker: she didn't even last through Genesis 1 ha! An ADORABLE thing she started doing this month was carrying around a small pocket Bible with her. She took it in the car. She carried it out and about. She even took it to Disney World and started asking to sleep with it every time she went to bed. So precious! I watched her outside as she found a little spot to sit and read her Bible! She is also at that age where she loves to pull TONS of stuff out and set it ALL up to play. And then I deal with th...
