Our little Graham Haggard is 6 months old! How can that be? He is changing too fast for me! He is a great baby and is happy most of the time. It's funny how things change when #2 comes along. We dont have a true schedule since each day is a little different with mdo, bible study and other activities for big sis. Basically, when he is hungry, I feed him. When he is tired, I put him in his bed. Isn't it funny how I stressed so much more about getting Anna Lou on a schedule as a baby. Was she sleeping enough, was she eating enough? Schedules are good, but aren't always what works once you have more than one bambino.
WARNING- Information overload! The grandmas and I care about this!
He is now 16 pounds (25th percentile) and 26 inches long (50th percentile). I just knew he was so much bigger than that but turns out he is about average. I think I was comparing to little Anna Lou who was always in about the 10th percentile. Graham takes 3 naps most days and normally at least one of those is 2+ hours. He still eats about every 3 hours during the day, and isn't too fond of cereal or baby food yet. At night, he sleeps from 7pm until about 5 am, then eats and back to sleep til around 7:30am. He has been stuck at that one feeding at 5 for a while, so I am hoping he starts to skip it soon! But I can't complain since he sleeps about 10 hours straight every night. He smiles so much and has a funny little giggle when tickled. He loves to sit in your lap and even cuddles sometimes. He is pretty easy going and will let anyone hold him, so far:). Favorite toys are his sophie giraffe, a teething ring and anything that will fit in his mouth, although no teeth yet. He loves watching Anna Lou run around and she still is pretty fond of her baby G! It's pretty fun watching her love on him. Just wait til he is on the move toward her toys. Watch out! Things might change. I cannot imagine our life before Graham came along. He is a such a joy and a precious gift from the Lord! We love our little blue eyed carrot top!!
