6 months

My sweetest little Kael is 6 months. He is still such a joy. Everyone who is around him just loves him. He has the best temperament and will go to anyone. He's found his voice and loves to babble, especially early in the morning. His brothers love to find new ways to make him giggle.

Jack is usually really good with him, but he does try to wrestle him.

Kael's been making the funniest faces lately. He likes to suck on his top lip and pout out his bottom one and he looks like a frog.

I love his chubby body.

Kire is the sweetest brother. He is always snuggling and kissing him.

I started feeding him food about a month ago and he loves it. Last year I bought a Blendtek blender and it has been awesome. I haven't had to buy any baby food, I just blend him up some fresh fruit, or steam some veggies and blend them up. I put the extra in an ice cube tray and freeze it and use it for the week. I wish I had done that with my other kids; it's so much healthier and cheaper.

I gave up nursing my other 2 babies at about this age, but I'm still nursing. My milk just doesn't seem to increase at this stage, so I have to supplement a little. So when I had to start giving my other boys bottles, they just weened naturally and seemed to prefer it. But Kael is still nursing great and prefers it to a bottle so I'm going to keep going as long as I can. I am getting anxious to be done because I have such a hard time losing weight while I'm nursing, but he is probably my last so I am going to enjoy him and the snuggling I get when I nurse.
