This post has been a long time coming...my goal is to keep up with them at least monthly so BW will have his baby info like C has.
Weight: 16.10 lbs
Length: 25 inches
Naptime: BW is on a three-hour schedule and naps four times a day for 45 minute
to 2 hour stretches, depending on the nap. BW's best nap is the
one following his “lunch” feeding at 1 pm, where he'll nap anywhere from 1.5-2 hours. We follow the E.A.S.Y. guidelines (eat, activity, sleep,
you by the Baby Whisperer).
Bedtime:
Our “little man” is going through sleep training as I write this. The first night was last night and it went really well, considering. Up until now he has been sleeping for 3-6 hour stretches and nursing roughly twice a night.
Food: None yet.

Nursing: BW is on a three (give or take a few minutes) hour schedule. He takes the bottle like a champ which makes it easier for Team Tellez to check out our (relatively) new home
Skills:
“Little dude” is able to roll from his back to tummy and
from tummy to his back, though he seems to prefer lying on his back; he
can see more from that vantage point, after all. Even though he's a
back man he does awesome during tummy time and is able to push his
chest off the ground. He's still not a fan of his Bumbo chair but loves
his bouncer and will move his legs so much he'll bounce like crazy. In
addition he’s been reaching for and grabbing his various toys
especially his "taggie" triangle and "Sofie" the giraffe. All-in-all
our boy is becoming
stronger and more aware of his surroundings. BW has also become quite
the ham (probably because the mamarazzi is always snapping pictures).
He loves to smile at the camera, cell phones and most people! He's not as smiley with strangers but still loves to give us a toothless grin. A bonus to the
loads of smiles is the giggles! Brandon can get BW to laugh just by
moving his head around, mommy can get him to laugh by tickling his
sides!

Language:
Baby boy is quite the chatterbox and is adding more and more
consonant sounds to his repertoire like "ma", "la", "goo" and high pitch squeals.
Fun Facts:
“Little man” is now in size 3 diapers he wears 3-6 and 6 month
clothes. BW's nails seem to grow like crazy and some weeks it’s as
often as 2
times a week that I have to trim them. When he's on his tummy during
tummy time he'll move his legs and arms like crazy almost like he's
swimming without the water. His favorite toy has
become his “Sophie” giraffe, which he gums and sucks on like crazy when
he can get it into his mouth. He also loves his "taggie" blanket or
triangle.
Tomorrow
B will complete his first half marathon, the St. Louis Rock & Roll
marathon and half marathon. He's been training for awhile and we
couldn't be prouder of him! C is still attending preschool and LOVES
it. He especially loves bringing home his artwork and talking about the
friends he played with that day. A new development is that C has
started to sing songs we had learned last spring at his Music Together
class! I guess they made an impression along with our awesome music
teacher, Miss Justine.
