Half Birthday(:

As I write this, Joey's just sitting in his bouncer, talking excitedly and watching our dog Sarg. I cannot believe that my little stallion turned 6 months about 13 days ago. Where has time gone?! It seriously feels like just last week we found out we were pregnant. It's true what other parents say, blink and you'll miss it. Any who(:

 14 lbs 11 oz

Length
25.2 in

Clothes Size
Some 3-6 and 6 months. 

Hair
Coming in nicely. Finally has been growing hair in his little old man hairline. Still brown.

Eyes
To my amazement, his eyes are still a beautiful blue

Sleeping
Sleeps about 6-8 hours a night. Takes 2-4 naps a day, length varies on the day (as many other parents probably know)

Eating
Alimentum (hypoallergenic formula). Still has the feeding tube. Still feed him overnight with a drip (continuous) feed and he gets about 120 mLs every 3 hours during the day. Overall goal is at least 28 oz a day. 

This month
Gotta double glove whichever hand is on the same side the tube is on. He got better at grabbing and pulling his tube. Little stinker. Gone back to disliking tummy time. Recently, he's really grown to like Sarg and Loki. He likes to watch them when they're in his line of vision and will smile at them. He loves blowing bubbles and is drooling a whole lot. BIGGEST news of this month: his TWO bottom teeth came in!!

September 28, 2017- I woke up thinking I was starting to get sick. Ugh. Who likes being sick? It was kind of hard to breathe, I felt sluggish and thought I was starting to get a fever. It was Thursday and also the last day of the training class I was in for work. I got up and got ready to try to survive the day. I wasn't going to let a cold stop me. For the last day, we spent the morning just going over one of the loading systems we use and then after lunch we were going to end the class with a class evaluation. Being a seasoned AMMO troop, I stood off to the side so the younger, newer members could get more hands on training. Half-way through the morning, I started to feel a weird sensation in my left arm. It also was harder to breathe than it was when I first woke up. Noticing this, I start...
