I know some of you have been trying to access my blog...and I have had it set to private due to the status of my siblings case. I have decided for now to set it to public again...and go forth.
Our family has nothing to hide...and this is MY space.
My space to share my heart.
And I have missed that...sharing my heart and my thoughts
And I have missed that...sharing my heart and my thoughts
And I refuse to live in fear for people of have nothing better to do with their time.
Actually the Lord commands us to fear no one. 1 Peter 3:14 comes to mind "But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it...don't worry or be afraid of their threats."

So...I am back!
And without further ado...Reagan Alexander is 6 MONTHS OLD!
My sweet boy...I can't believe you are halfway to a year old already!
You finally started eating babyfood.
After you found a food that you liked (peaches) you must have figured it out and now you eat whatever I give you!
You definitely prefer fruit to veggies though.
And you definitely prefer me to make it homemade than to eat the store-bought stuff.
You haven't gained much weight lately, I think you are still just under 20 pounds..but I chalk that up to how active you are. You definitely aren't lacking...you still nurse about 8 times a day (for those of you who were giving me tips before...my supply has been pretty much back to normal for a few weeks now!) and you eat babyfood 1-2 times a day.

You move everywhere!
You aren't crawling yet...but you are getting up on your hands and knees more and more.
You do a little side-kick maneuver to get you where you want to go.
And you are fast!
You have started rocking back and forth on your hands and knees.
And you are fast!
You have started rocking back and forth on your hands and knees.
But mostly you roll and roll and roll.
You have SUCH a personality.
You are so animated all the time. So many different faces and emotions...I love it!
You talk ALL THE TIME.
You definitely like to make noise.
You do a lot of "mama" and "dada" and "baba" and a lot of other noises.
You have been sleeping amazingly.
But that isn't really anything new :)
You go to bed usually between 9:30-10:30 and wake up about 7:30.
We have even started laying you down awake so you can learn to fall asleep on your own...and usually you do pretty well, but you want nothing to do with that for naps. You much prefer to be rocked to sleep!
We have been so blessed by these past 6 months with you.
You are such a joy!
And as happy as you've ever been.
I wish all my readers could get a glimpse of how cute you are napping right now :)
You always sleep on your tummy now...and your legs are all curled up underneath you with your butt in the air. So sweet!
Love you my Reagan man,
Momma

That second photo does remind me of Jamie's little one - Caleb, when he was younger. Enjoyed reading this - way to make me cry. Well, just finished my quiet/devotion time, so was still working on recovering from that. Love his "big mouth" grin in the last one. He is a sweetie. Enjoy each moment and milestone as many moms so wish they had the privilege of being home to raise their little ones like you've been given. God bless your ministry.

ReplyDeleteIn the meantime, when so many thousands of the people had gathered together that they were trampling one another, he began to say to his disciples first, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops. “I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do. But I will warn you whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him! ..
