Loves: His big brother! He's always turning and moving so he can see him. Trying to feed him while Jack is around is nearly impossible. He's either ripping my boob off as he whips his head around or letting go of the bottle while he cranes his neck. But it's so cute watching them babble and talk to each other! 💗💗💗 Rolling over. He immediately rolls to his belly as soon as he's laid down. Last night he stayed on his back for like 5min staring at me and it felt so weird! He also loves to make raspberries. It's so cute but a little annoying when I'm trying to feed him lol.
Hates: being left alone. Constantly turning his head and screaming until he can see us again.
Milestones: He still can't roll from his belly to his back. Our daycare says he does it there but we've yet to see it at home. He's learning to sit but we aren't quite there yet. He likes to roll over his hips then he falls sideways. We're constantly squaring up his shoulders over his hips to sit straight.
Sleep: Still pretty awesome! We're potty training Jack and we've gone cold turkey on diapers, at all times including bed, (that's a whole 'nother blog post 😓), so Henry's been sleeping in Max's arms while I deal with Jack. Then we lay Henry down once Jack is settled. But I'm hoping as potty training progresses we can get back to dual bed times.
But they do really well sleeping in the same room. They go down around 8:30ish and recently both have been sleeping in until 7ish! 🙌
Eating: We didn't make our goal of 6 months. Last week we introduced formula by doing half-and-half bottles. And just yesterday he was only on formula at daycare. I only nurse him first thing in the morning and right before bed. I'm not sure he gets much of anything but so far it's working for us.
At daycare he eats 3 6-7oz bottles or 18-21oz total. Today is the first day I didn't pump at work. It's bittersweet but I know I'm still doing the best for my baby.
He eats oatmeal for breakfast and then 2 4oz jars of baby food for lunch and dinner. I haven't started making food yet but I'm sure that's coming.
Teething: The drool can't stop won't stop.
