6 Months

Ahhhhh! Half a year! My how time flies....

I revisited my 5 month post and laughed out loud because sleep training was a bust. It didn't happen. It will never happen again. I toughed out another month of nightly zombie walks to his room to rock, hush, and nurse my cuddly little boy. Finally, yes, FINALLY, Cashie is only waking twice a night to nurse and if he does wake in between he will fall back asleep on his own. Can I get a hallelujah?!

Continuing on....he has not gained even an ounce this past month. 19lbs.....I have to say that I think his dairy free life has finally helped my Skinny out, less frequent dirty diapers and no more grumbly tummy. As for developmental achievements, he has learned that if he wants something he can beg for it and if you want to take it away from him once in hand all hell will break loose. Cash loves (loves) sticking his tongue out and has found the relationship between the word 'no' and shaking his head...sometimes he'll do these two actions simultaneously. He has made no effort to crawl and why would he with a mother who can't keep her hands off of him?

The Easter Bunny Came!

Even though we were at grandma and grandpa's the Easter Bunny knew we were not at home. Clever bunny rabbit!

A Wee Lil' Irishman

Cash's name is more Irish than he is. None the less, he will always be reminded of the Irish family that came before him to create this fine specimen of a human he is and will become.

Sunday Funday Baby Style

'Sunday Funday' has the sweetest new meaning for Tuck and me. A little chubby boy is now always in tow and makes our Sundays better than they ever were before. I don't even remember what life without him was like.

5 Months

Cash has been pretty adamant about not napping and waking frequently at night. We are trying sleep training.....it is hard on us both to say the least. We still have nothing to show for it.

Our little chubba lubba is whispering at 20lbs' ear asking to be let in. He has grown an inch this past month keeping in the 90th percentile. As far as developmental leaps he now sits up on his own for minutes at a time, he rolls really well from back to front, he practices new sounds but still loves to use gaga when talking, he loves looking into his toy bin and pulling out the toy that looks most interesting to him, the best new development is his wanting cuddles by burying his head into my shoulder and holding on tightly to my arm.
