Already 6 months old!

My baby boy is already 6 months old! He has grown so much! He's gone from learning how to breastfeed, to scarfing down solids as fast as he can get them. He is such a joy and I can't picture life without him. While I love the stage he is in right now, I miss the precious newborn stage. I miss how little he use to be and how he could fit on my chest completely stretched out. I miss how little his clothes used to be! He was a beautiful newborn, but he somehow gets more handsome every day. Turning 6 months old made me realize how fast time goes and how quickly things change. I just had to go back and look at my favorite pictures of Aben.

Aben at Christmas

My little boy is growing up! With starting solids and getting new teeth, he just seems so big to me now. I love how happy he is-just look at our Christmas picture! I love how he now plays with us and interacts so much more. It's so fun to watch him play with his toys and talk while he is playing. I love how he is learning to make new sounds and how excited he gets when he discovers something new. I love how he looks back at you when you are holding him to make sure you're still there and give you a sweet smile. I love how he laughs all the time. His laugh is the best sound in the whole world! I love his big lips and his big smile! He definitely got that handsome feature from his daddy. I love how he is starting to squeal when he gets excited, especially when he sees his solid food. While I love how he has grown, I sure miss my little newborn. But what a joy each new days is. What I love most of all is the time I now have to spend with my boy!
