Oliver Frank at 6 months

Dear Oliver,

Little Fella, you're halfway to ONE and more adorable than ever! It has been quite a month for you!

  • Your big smile takes up your whole and your eyes still get squnity. Your smile is LITERALLY one of my favorite things! 
  • You had RSV a couple of weeks ago. It was rough...really rough. Thankfully, we were able to keep you at home (and out of the hospital). You're completely recovered now and I hope to never hear you wheeze like that again. (Also, round-the-clock breathing treatments are not fun!)
  • You're sitting up pretty well these days! You still get "tipsy" if you reach too far for a toy, but overall you're pretty steady. Your Sissy is still practicing giving gentle kisses that don't knock you over :)
  • Speaking of Sissy, you just started taking toys that she hands to you. If you don't grab it fast enough, she basically forces it toward your head. It's all because she loves you, just remember that. You two are best friends!
  • Oliver, you ARE expressing your dislike when people won't get out of your face. It's basically one lone "yell" that means "back off". (Daddy thinks your approach is a good one and wishes adults could use it!)
  • Daddy & I took you to your 1st hockey game this month. Daddy is hoping you'll love hockey as much as does!
  • You have a TOOTH! (Daddy was right!) There's no need to grow a mouthful of teeth for SEVERAL more months...take your time, Oliver. Don't grow up too fast!
  • You tried apple and pear recently. You're only getting "real food" once a day, but I think you would eat it as often as we would give it to you. You definitely share my love of food! 
  • You're in size 2 diapers and 3-6/6 month clothes. Yes, there are still a few 3 month things you can wear! 
  • At 6 months, you are 14 whole pounds, which puts you at the 2nd percentile. You're so tall that you don't even make their silly chart...or something like that ;) Your head is at the 65th percentile. You're growing perfectly, Oliver Frank. 
Love always, 
 Mommy
