Baby Milestones

Tooth number 6 has officially broken the surface of the gums, and we are having to crack down on biting as Jax wants to explore everything with those little chompers. 

We have had about a week and a half of consistent 8:30pm bedtime, with most nights involving a 7-hour stretch. We are all very grateful for this development and hoping for more of that! (Every few days he has a wonky night where he gets up at crazy hours, but I'm trying to just be thankful for the longer sleep when it comes!) His nap times are also getting more consistent, with a morning nap between 9:30-10:30 sometime and an afternoon nap between 2-3 most days. 

He is much more sturdy pulling up to standing, and slowly getting the hang of sitting down instead of free falling. 

He loves being outside more than anything, which is a great cure for the grumpies when he wakes up on the wrong side of the crib. I plop him in his walker and pull it onto the balcony and we can stay out there easily for 30 minutes! He also really loves trying to eat grass when he has the chance to play on the ground. He grabs it by the fistful and tries to sneak it in when I'm not paying attention. 


Life is definitely not dull at the Olson casa these days. It does my mama heart so much good seeing him learn and grow and explore.
