Half a year!!! Half. A. Year. How is it even remotely possible that my little man is half a year old. Time is just going by way too fast. Everyone always says that this stage flies by, but I never really understood how quickly until we were in it. He is rapidly becoming less and less of a baby and it makes this mama heart want to cry! So I am definitely soaking in these days as best I can!
A couple things I want to make note of this month so I can look back later and not forget :) He has been big on resting his hands on me. We were out grocery shopping and I was wearing him in my carrier facing out, and as I was pushing the cart, he laid his hand on mine, he does it while he's nursing, and one day before a nap as I was rocking him to sleep, he gently rested his hand on my face and looked up a me, and let me tell you, my heart was just about ready to burst. I hope 20 years from now I can look back and remember those sweet moments I shared with my son.
