Rian's beautiful blue/hazel eyes! :)
Age:
6 months & 2 days.
Clothes size:
6-9 mostly. I think his growth is slowing down now! Which apparently is normal after 6 months!
Sleep:
Really great! He goes down to sleep in his bed at around 8-9pm and puts himself to sleep! Its amazing how good he is with his sleep! He will then sleep until 7-9am in the morning. :) Great for my much needed beauty sleep! haha! ;) Rian sleeps in his own cot all night until he wakes, then he gets a bottle in my bed and might go for a snooze snuggled up to me for another final hour.. We are halfway through doing up his own room for him! Its the furtherest away bedroom in the landing from mine!! I hope he doesnt get upset when he's moved in! (or me.. like I said.. growing up too fast!!)
Asleep with a face covered in Liga biscuit bits! :')
Feeding:
7-9am : First bottle. Aptimal first milk. I dont plan on moving him onto the no.3 follow on milk for babies over 6 months. From my research it seems to cause more problems than it solves.. and it doesnt solve anything! He will be on cows milk when he is one! I believe that will be best for him! Unless it doesnt agree with him! obviously! :P
10am: A small bowl of Milupa's Seven Cereals
1pm: A pot of Cow & Gate 100% fruit
2pm: Another bottle of formula milk.
4pm: A tub of Cow & Gate Little Gourmet Custards These taste like petit filouis! The strawberry is his favourite! :)
6pm: A packet of Ella's Kitchen organic baby food. Love these. Love giving Rian them. He loves them all! Theres a huge variety too to choose from! I think cow & gate's dinner range is really small! and they all taste very similar.. Like carrots! The stain like carrots too!
7.30-8.00pm: Last bottle of the night! His favourite! :)
Nomming on a Liga biscuit! (an occasion snack!)
New things:
ROLLING OVER! He's doing it ALL the time now! I'm so proud haha! I missed the first time he did it! I had just left the room to go to the toilet.. walked back in and he was on his tummy! My brother swore he didnt flip him over (he had tried to trick me with that before) and later that day I caugh him doing it! He gets stuck on his tummy sometimes and cant figure out rolling back on his back if his arm gets stuck and then he gets frustrated! But all in all he is delighted with himself! He is pulling his knees up to his stomach too now.. Which is meant to be the starts of crawling! (holy shit!!!!) haha! :)
Rian is also now in his big boy stroller! I got the Quinny Zapp but dont recommend it so I wont bother leaving a link! I'll be getting him a better quality stroller over the summer! :) He LOVES facing outwards watching everything happening! Such a people person.. He coo's at people standing around him and smiles at everyone he can! :)
Things coming up in the next month:
Rian's christening is in 10 days! I'm both nervous and excited about it!.. Because me and Rian's dad arnt together I dont know any of his family very well at all.. and wont see them until the day.. But I'm excited for Rian! He's going to look so cute in his outfit and he will love the attention too! ''About time to wet the babies head!!!'' haha everyone had been waiting for his christening for so long! Well its finally going to happen. It will be nice to spend some time with my family and friends.
That's all thats planned for Rian in the next month I think....
OH and he will be moving into his new room! Once it is done being decorated.. Cant wait! ;)
