It seems he was born last week.
How can he truly be half-a-year old? That was one blink. One more and he’ll be in college.
And I know it’s true… I will be wishing I could rock him back to sleep.
Our little Merritt Will.
His eyes literally sparkle when he smiles–which is often. Last week Troy started calling him “Twinkle Eyes” out of the blue. Where he picked that up, or how he knew what it meant, I have no idea. So Twinkle Eyes he is.
He’s also Mer-mer, Mer Bear, Mer-nitt Wee-oh or Wee-ote, Bebe, Tiny, Baby Tiny, and most often, Bubbie. Other than Tiny and Mer Bear, those were all Troy’s doing.
He’s also taking a bottle of pumped milk now and then, which you can see makes his Grammie very happy, and Mama, too… Mama can actually leave him with special people for a little longer at a time.
His favorite toys… baby gym.
Being so big these day can make a little guy tired.
Tried a couple bites of mushy banana. Not too thrilled with that.
Milkies are just fine for now, Mama.
He’s loving his binky less and less these days, but his big brother more and more. Snuggle times are his favorite.
He watches every move his big brother makes and laughs at his every antic. What a responsibility Troy will have…
Six months… sweet little Bubbie.
I can hardly believe that 6 months ago today I say that sweet little boy come out of his mamma’s tummy. That whole day was filled with so much emotion. He is so sweet I love him so much!!! i cant believe hes sitting up!! Big boy he is!!
