| Miles and Ronan (note the slightly panicked look on Miles' face). |
Miles Norman you have just turned 6 months old. Daddy and I were talking about how we can't believe tthat you have been around half of a year. You have been getting very active lately. You first rolled from your belly to back at just about 4 month (2/18/12). You were doing so well sleeping through the night and then BOOM! Suddenly you were getting up 6 times a night! I was ready to keel over at any time, but then out popped your first two teeth (3/12/12) at 4.5 months. I couldn't believe they were here so early. I was really relieved that there was a reason you kept getting up.
The week after your teeth popped out you get a pretty high fever (up to 103.1). I knew it couldn't be your teeth, so I took you in to the pediatrician. You weighed in at 15lbs 13 ounces at 5 months when we were at the office. They tested you for everything (RSV, ear infection, even UTI) and all was negative. We think you had roseola due to the rash that popped out after your fever. I guess we will never know for sure!
You finally rolled from your back to your belly on 4/16/12 (6 months). Now you are rolling and reaching quite a bit. You new favorite toy is your jumparoo. You will stay in that thing for >30 min bouncing up and down. We have to watch big brother because he also likes to bounce you. You think it is great and smile and laugh, but really it is somewhat dangerous.
You are eating ~3-5 oz bottles at daycare and nursing 3 times per day (and sometimes 3 times per night). Ever since your roseola you have been getting up a lot at night. We aren't sure if you are hungry (doubt it), getting more teeth (possibly), or just want some attention (probably). Yikes! We are ready for more than 2 hours of sleep at a time. You have started trying rice cereal and baby food. So far you have had pears, apples, sweet pototatoes, and bananas. You didn't seem to like any of them, but we'll keep trying.
You are wearing 3-6 month clothes. You are pretty long, so some of the one piece 3-6 month outfits are getting packed away. You are wearing size 2 diapers.

Daycare Notes
2/29/12 Note from Ms. Brittany: "Miles is not making it past 2 hours. He seems to be more hungry. Do you think he could have more breast milk (oz)?" So now he is going to get 5 oz instead of 4.
