It's been such a sweet
six months of getting to know this little blessing.
This kiddo
loves being naked. Typical baby thing. Plus, his cloth diapers are so big that "naked time" is the only time he can sufficiently suck on his toes. He lets out a whine when I pull his feet out of his mouth and straighten his legs to put his diaper on. Makes me want to do it 20 extra times a day until he discovers that whining will never get him anywhere. : )
Sleeping through the night . . . we've found him more than once having fun in his crib at night. Sucking on his toes or watching a slide show of our wedding pictures on the computer in his room. Luke has found him on his back more than once and, after flipping him back to his tummy, has found that he goes right back to sleep on his own. Night sleep is not something that I have to guess on. He'll sleep through the night. Without fail.
I so love
baby feet. In the winter I typically do put socks on my child's feet. Keeping children warm and clean is something that was ingrained in me from my own infancy. But I also have a love for going bare foot and for getting messy (the little kid comes out in me every rainstorm when I have a longing to go get drenched and run through wet grass without my shoes). . . just can't wait for summer when the weather will let us go out more.
Seems to have his dad's
personality in a lot of ways . . . very happy go lucky. He does more when you are not around than when you are by way of rolling and such.
He loves to
talk though . . . which proves that he is half Jenkins. And well, having his Grandpa's big blue eyes helps with the resemblance too.
He thrives on
structure as much as any child. The more "to the minute" I am with his feedings, naps, and play times the more enjoyable his behavior is. It makes the abnormal times easier to handle too. So . . . all in all, a very content little baby. I have found myself smothering his head with kisses before I put him to bed and telling him how much I love him . . . and then telling Luke how I wouldn't mind having a lot of
miniature Lukies around.
