Happy Half Birthday Bram!

Wow - Bram is already six months old!!! He going to see the doctor on Monday so I don't have those updates yet, but let me think about what has happened in the last weeks...

-Bram's second tooth really did come in about a week after I thought I first saw it
-He has started grabbing/scratching his belly when lying down
-He has started on rice cereal and oat cereal - I give them to him mixed and he loves it
-He has had several serious blow outs, thanks to the cereals no doubt
-When the poopy diaper is opened, Bram can reach the poop
-Bram had his first ear infection - last dose of antibiotics is tomorrow. This was really disturbing his sleep for a while. The doctor said his ear drum was as red as a tomato and should be about the color of his skin. It's amazing he wasn't more miserable than he was! That was his right ear. The doctor couldn't see the left ear drum because of ear wax. The chunk of ear wax came out two days later.
-The soother/paci is back
-He has started banging toys on things
-He's still not rolling over much
-He is starting to sit up on his own
-I cut Bram's bangs - the two perfectly parted locks were driving me crazy, especially after seeing the pictures below

The sweet pose. See how Bram can hold his feet?

The happy pose

The playful and silly pose. The funny thing
that was going on here was that Bram was getting
hungry and was trying to eat Jonah. As usual,
Jonah thought it was hilarious.
How many monkeys do you see in the picture?

Now that Bram is well again, he is headed back in the direction of being super happy. We're sure glad about that!

I'll report on his size/growth next week!
