Six months old!

Vital stats from our appointment with Dr Marc -

Height: 26-1/2 in, or 55th percentile
Weight: 17 lb 14 oz, or 55th percentile
Head: 44 cm, or 80th percentile


I can...

* Sit unassisted
* Laugh, coo, gurgle, and say "bah"
* Interact with my big sister
* Roll front to back and back to front.
* Hold an object with my hands and pass it from hand to hand
* Flirt with anyone who'll give me the chance

So, this post is almost a month late BUT better late than never! Happy six month birthday, sweet boy. How did six months go by so quickly?!

Things that go bump in the night

Sawyer is almost ready to sleep through the night. But, we're not quite there yet. At any rate, every little, or not so little, noise wakes me up these days. Last night was particularly goofy night at our house. I'm pretty sure there wasnt a full moon either.

230A. I was awoken by the pitter-patter of little feet running across the tile downstairs and someone yelling, "It's Christmas!" I'm not sure what I was most concerned about -- one of the outside doors being opened and the house alarm going off instantly, the gifts under the tree being torn into and me having to re-wrap them all, or Madelyn injuring herself. I found my sweet little muffin by the kitchen table, brought her back upstairs, and tucked her in bed. There she stayed for the rest of the night.

515A. I was awoken by the sounds of toys falling. Assuming they were falling down the stairs, I got up expecting to find Madelyn headed back downstairs. But, no. I peeked in her room to find two cats. Nemo was under attack! Sadie cat, the look out, had already fled, but Felix was holding his position firmly on the dresser next to Nemo's bowl. The water was sloshing around and the toys on the dresser were all knocked off. When Madelyn and Griff got Nemo a week ago, I swore I would have nothing to do with it. However, I also don't want to clean up dead fish and stinky water. Nemo will be finding a new home within our house so that he can be better protected from cats.

On a side note, Mr Sawyer slept until 615A. Progress!

PS I do have six month pictures and stats to post but afternoon naps haven't been longer than 30 minutes lately so I'm a wee bit delayed.

Happy 6-month birthday!

I can...

...sit up by myself.
...eat solid foods (rice cereal and oatmeal).

...recognize Mom and Dad (and Sadie and Felix).
...roll over from back to front and, sometimes, front to back.


I can remember what I was doing six months ago tonight but I can't remember life without you. Happy six-month birthday, Madelyn.
