6 Months Old


I cannot believe that Santiago is half a year old already! He is such a wonderful blessing to our family and it's hard to remember life before him. Here is what he is up to lately:
  • Wears size 12 clothes and size 3 diapers.
  • Can sit up all by himself.
  • Sits with his ankles crossed.

  • Squeals and grunts in happiness.
  • Blows bubbles and raspberries.
  • Gives kisses when you ask for them and when he wants to.
  • Makes noises all the time - sometimes he actually sounds like he is talking. He makes two and three syllable noises and almost speaks in sentences! We can't wait to hear a real word come out..."mama" please or "daddy"!
  • Wakes up and talks to himself and plays with his feet and even puts them in his mouth sometimes!
  • Cuddles in bed with us.
  • Reaches out to me when he wants me to hold him.

  • Belly laughs at silly noises and songs.
  • Can pull himself into a standing position by holding our hands.
  • Beats his fists like he is playing the drums on things.
  • Loves to hear people say "beep beep"
  • Loves songs sung to him especially "Deep in the Heart of Texas" and the "Grand Ol Duke of York"
  • Flaps his arms and legs when is excited.
  • Jumps up and down in your lap.
  • Puts everything in his mouth.

Santiago got to ride a horse for the first time today also with his Pappaw. He really was impressed with Gunsmoke the horse and Pappaw was very excited and proud!
