Say It Ain't So.....Happy 1/2 Ezra!!!

My precious angelic little boy is SIX months old today!!!! I can hardly believe it! 
Where oh where did the time go!? 
I heart him so muchly.
Here's an e-boy update!
*He is rolling rolling everywhere and frequently gets stuck or wedged certain places. 
*He is starting to push up on his hands like he's going to crawl! That is not allowed Ezra!! =)
*Ezra LOVES rice cereal! Applesauce was a bust but we'll try some new things as the days go by.
****And here's the *just bein' real* portion of this post:****
He does not I REPEAT does not and HAS NEVER slept through the *night* (12-6). He can sleep 8-2 but always always always gets up. And sometimes Mommy falls asleep feeding him (much to my chagrin and his delight =). My girls had both slept through the night at least a couple of times by now...alas--he has not! I'm hoping once he's settled in his own room that this will change. I don't mind waking up once a night...but twice or more is tiring. He always goes right back to sleep but it's still a marathon!
*Also Ezra is huge. I won't find out just how huge until his 6 month appt 
(which is in two weeks which means he'll be even huge-r). It's weird how he and Maeve were fed/raised/birthed by the same parents and he nearly weighs as much as she does at 2.5 yrs!!
*Ezra has the most fun when he is watching his sisters play or sitting outside watching Mommy do yard work =) He loves his exersaucer, bounceroo and activity mat.
*He loves sucking his thumb/fingers/toes/blanky
That's it for now! He's a precious little guy and I can't believe how quickly these months have flown! *tear*

I'd like to add:
*He only has eyes for Mama, but smiles for everyone...and heartmelting smiles at that!

Happy 6 months Ezra!

I am so right there with you on the whole sleeping dilemma! I think Simon is trying to kill me : ) He too, has never slept "through the night". He gave me a few random 6 hour stretches months ago. But TRUTHFULLY, (for the past few weeks) he has been waking up every 2 hours. Sometimes less and thankfully, and occasionally a bit longer. Seriously though, he is waking more often than a newborn! I am hoping once we get him into his own room, that will help some. Like you, I don't mind getting up to feed him, but I am starting to turn into a zombie!

All that to say...you are not alone my friend : )
