Knox- 6 months

Well, I'm a week behind and that is pretty representative of this last month. Whew! What a quick month is was and what growing and developing our boy has done! He is officially rolling from his back to his tummy (finally)- I haven't actually seen him do it live, but in the monitor I've seen him on his back and then later on his tummy. It's funny that he's been so resistant to learning that. He's sitting for about a minute at a time and is rocking a lot on his tummy. He hasn't gotten on his knees yet, so I think we have a little time before crawling, but I'm sure it will be here before we know it. 

Knox is a great sleeper and eater. He has just about devoured any new food he's tried. He sleeps well and does really well with a schedule. He loves his fox lovie and I love that Knox has a Fox. :) 

Knox has also started laughing- really more like squealing- and interacting a lot with his siblings. He grabs hair -eek- but he really just wants you in his face and close enough to chew on. :) We all are having so much fun with him and are thankful he's such a happy guy. He had his first cold and really handled it well. He might be teething- but who really knows that until those little babies pop through. Church nursery is a little hit-or-miss, but hopeful he'll adjust and be nice- haha. :) 

Sisters wanted to get in on the photo shoot too. :)

Knox- 5 months

Here we are at 5 months already! Knox continues to be a happy healthy little guy. He is growing like crazy- 6/9 month clothes and size 3 diapers. He outgrows the width of his clothes before he outgrows the length. Since we can't go to high school games, we haven't been to a football game yet, but he has been to several of his big brothers' soccer games. This last month Knox has discovered his toes and feet and has started to laugh when being tickled. He still only rolls from tummy to back- once he's on his back he's like a turtle. He also is still a thumb-sucker. He is my alarm clock every morning at 5am, but goes to bed at 8 so it really is good. He had his first taste of oatmeal and took some good bites, but I wouldn't say he loved it. Knox nurses 5 times a day and has started to babble a lot and squeal really loudly. He brings a lot of joy to the whole family and we sure love every roll of him. 😍

Knox- 4 months

 

This last month flew by and Knox is 4 months old (he's surprised too)! 

Knox is a pretty easy-going baby. He lets us know when he's tired and hungry. In the last month he started rolling from tummy to back only and he sleeps on his tummy in his bed now too. He has started sucking his thumb consistently, which is new for this mama but it's pretty handy! It's been fun for all of us as he's almost laughing and smiling/interacting a lot more. 

The last three weeks at church, Knox has had a blow out. He doesn't have them frequently, but he saves the big ones for church. 

I have forgotten to write down in other posts about him that he has the softest neck and back of the head ever. He feels like a brand new puppy. It's the best. :)

Knox really likes his biggest brother's British accent. It usually brings a big smile.
