#82- Oliver, 6 months!

Oh yes he is, the newborn stage is long gone, baby-explorer stage has begun! And what boggles my mind even more is that THIS YEAR he will be ONE YEAR OLD!
My dear Oliver is growing big and tall, and getting more and more wiggly! I think he is just revving up so that once he learns mobility he will be able to catch up to his older siblings even faster. He can sit, pick things up, roll from back to tummy (but has NO interest in rolling, he'll just lie there and kick if I lay him down) he is starting to experience more solids, main faves are carrots and sweet potato!
He is still the most darling snuggler; although with two teeth and many more on the way, most of his snuggles (which always involve grabbing my face) end up giving the receiver a lovely slobber-bath. Mmmm, I'm sure there is science somewhere out there about the skin benefits of baby drool!
With the teething and growth spurt, his nights are a little more rocky than usual (this is my boy who was sleeping through the night at 6 weeks) and I'm often up with him at least 2 or 3 times. And I know I can't complain! As well he is a little more irritable than usual during the day. But overall, he is a cheerful little observer who loves being held wiggling away slobbering and watching his sibs. He still loves me the MOST, (heehee) but has a huge liking towards Isaac as well as increasingly starting to move over to the DAD SIDE.
The next 6 months are going to be full of exciting new things for this little guy! Can't wait! (actually. I can wait...)
Basically the same size as Rosalie!
Couldn't be more opposite, but the best buds:)
