The day after Christmas, Waylon turned 6 months old.
6 month old babies have always been my favorite, and Waylon does not disappoint. He’s funny, really funny. Of course he’s also a royal pain in the arse with all this screeching and biting (moment of silence for the ladies), but I do find myself wanting to freeze time, make these moments last just a little longer. Parents love to say “they grow up so fast.” I think this is because there’s nothing else to say, no other way to put it. I can already feel this baby stage slipping through my fingers as he sprouts teeth, moves more, and snuggles less.
Anyway, I am fully aware that these monthly stats are more for me than for you. I want to remember this some day, and writing it all down relieves my nostalgic, worrier, hoarder self. You’re welcome, future Kate (and my apologies future babies whose Mom is too tired to do this for them too).

I love the picture looking down at his belly. Ha!
His feet smell like cheese?! That is gross/hilarious.
Oh, my ovaries !

Posted on You’re a far braver veiewr than I I’ve given up on even the one genre show this season I sorta liked, Reaper, cause when it’s on, I can’t motivate enough interest to actually watch a whole episode.I’m a reality whore now. It’s all I do.
love him.
Your baby is adorable. I love his cute little smile. What a great way to document his milestones. Happy New Year!
Happy new year!
Dear Kate,
Can you pleas document my baby’s milestones and make awesome videos of it every month? Thanks, you’re a great friend.
Absolutely.
My little man turned 6 months the day before Christmas!! So fun cuz I can relate to a LOT of your stats. However, you’re boy looks much sturdier than Cohen sitting on that dining table! I’m pretty sure he’d topple over if we tried that. What a sweet heart.
*your, not you’re
ohhh he’s so cute in these pics.
Waylon is super adorable of course! But that striped hoodie is just too much. It is all perfect! Enjoy the moments. And you are right, they grow up to fast, and there really isn’t a better way to put it.
