Ok, so I know that for every one of Haisley's monthly updates I talked about time flying. I didn't have a clue. Until life is busy with two little ones, you really can't understand how quickly time goes by. With that said, my sweet, precious, happy Benton is a third of a year old. I often look at him and see him reaching for things, rolling over, giggling at his sister, and I think, goodness, he is doing a lot for a newborn. Then I quickly remember that my sweet baby isn't a newborn anymore. He is growing by leaps and bounds. He started rolling from his back to his tummy about two weeks ago.
Some things I want to remember about my Benton Boy:
He giggles often
Grabs for things and pulls them to his mouth
Still likes his paci, but doesn't have near of the addiction that Haisley did/does
Has started sleeping without his swaddle, and does great
Still is rocked to sleep
No consistent naps
Kicks his legs up and rolls to one side
Plays with his feet
Anytime eye contact is made, he smiles the most precious gummy smile!
Squeals and coos quite a bit
So so happy if he isn't tired or hungry. You might be thinking, well isn't every baby. No, this is not the case with every baby. Just ask Haisley.
Loves playing on his activity mat.
Adores his sister.
Wearing size 2 diapers
Mostly 6 month clothes
Has a very loud cry
Is over the bouncy seat. We'll probably progress to the jumperoo in a couple of weeks
Such an easy baby.
