6 Months

Mr. Personality

So much has happened in the last month. Lane is starting to crawl, can roll over both ways (from back to stomach and stomach to back). If you blink, he will be across the room. Lane seems to be less frustrated that he can move around. We have been awake more in the night the past couple of weeks because the nugget is practicing his crawl in his sleep :)

He laughs and smiles all of the time. Is friendly to everyone he meets, smiling at them when they say hi. He has such a good, friendly personality and his sense of humor is really starting to shine through. He is very vocal, saying "Nee Nee Nee" non-stop. The other day he "Nee Nee'd" the entire way to work/school, which is almost 20 minute drive. I talked with him a little too.

He loves music and singing. No matter what he is doing, or how he is feeling, when he hears someone sing, he stops everything and listens. Especially when dad sings.

An example of his sense of humor, is when I get a little stressed, he laughs at me.... I try and talk to him and tell him things that I am doing while I am doing them so that he can learn. I was preparing his lunch in class the other day, as soon as I walked in the room, I said "Are you hungry for lunch?" He replied with a "Nee Nee Nee". I said, "Okay, I brought you a banana, let me mash it for you." I turned my back to him to mash away. Well, he was waiting patiently for a few minutes, but I guess it was taking too long, because I got a loud "Nee Nee NEE". Me being the stress case that I am, I turned around and said, "I'm trying to hurry, Lane" in my stressed out voice... and he started laughing at me. Making me smile, of course. About a week ago, I was giving him a bath, and he started kicking his feet in the tub. He thought that was hilarious, and deep belly laughed for a good five minutes, at least. We were both cracking up. Those are just a couple of examples, but I do have a really good feeling about little Lane and his personality. He is an old soul for sure.

He loves to eat, but has to hold his own spoon. And it is always messy. New to the menu are pears, mango, green beans, sweet potato, peaches, apple did not sit well, we'll try again soon.

LOVES: Being outside, music (singing), spanish, talking

HATES: Still not a fan of getting dressed
