Koby's first 1/2 birthday



We celebrated Koby's first 1/2 birthday today with Koby's favorite meal - rice cereal! Koby's been eating the cereal for about 3 weeks now. We started when Meme and James visited, and we've been going strong ever since. His bib says I love my Grandpa(s)

Another exciting thing that we're trying now that Koby's reached the 6 month mark - sleeping through the night. When Koby wakes in the middle of the night, Mark heads into the nursery to soothe Koby back to sleep. The first night it worked great, Mark spun some toys on Koby's activity center and he went back to sleep after about 10 minutes. The second night, I thought that Koby was screaming for too long, so I came into the room. Well, if I thought that Koby was screeming before I came in, I was wrong. He saw me, and knew that food was closeby. Mark said that he thought he had a chance of putting Koby back to sleep until I came into the room. oops. Last night, Mark was soothing Koby for 35 minutes before giving up hope, so a midnight snack was had. Hopefully better news to report next time.

Take heart. You can stop getting up in the middle of the night when he goes to college. Then, you'll just stay up all night.

he looks cute in that bib. Take heart, when you look back at these times it will bring a smile to your face and a warmth to your heart. I know it does for me.
