22 pounds!

So David got weighed last week since he had a weird rash/bite on his right thumb. He was 22 pounds 2 ounces! I cannot believe how much he has changed recently. He has perfected his crawl and his army crawl is a thing of the past. He loves to follow people/animals around. We were at my friend Angela's house who has a friendly cat that would walk away from David and then just stop and lay down a couple feet away. David felt like this meant that he was supposed to keep chasing this poor cat and pull on it's long hair and tail. I guess the cat gets lots of it from Angela's 3 kids.
He's also pulling himself up on everything that sits just a little off the floor. He loves the entrainment center, the couch, and myself the most. Though he likes the glider, ottoman, and coffee table a lot too. We had to buy one of those fabric things that goes on the wood of crib. At first I thought he learned that running his fingers over the bars in his crib would make a noise. Then I listed a little closer one day and found out it was him chewing on the crib! So needless to say there are already bite marks, just didn't want to make them any worse then they already are.
He's also getting pretty good at eating finger foods. Though right now we are just doing those little puffs. We have also tried those Mum Mum crackers which he pretty much just destroyed, but doesn't eat that much of. LOL! For example today he was eating one and it some how ended up on his shoulder. I don't even know if he knew where it went.
David can say Mama! Though I have kind of just passed it off as babble, since he just randomly says it. But it's cute that he'll come up to you and sit down and put his arms out so you'll pick him up. He gives mommy and daddy the biggest smiles! He is so full of love.
Sleep is still really rocky. He's been getting up 3 times a night almost every night for a month or less now. I talked to his doctor about it who simply told me that he can sleep through the night, but that I also need to know what battles to fight and which ones to let themselves work out. So I am slowly night weaning him so that he'll stop waking up to eat. It's been going pretty well so far.
David is working on his two top teeth. The right one is getting pretty visible through his gums. Joe said today that it looked pretty sore. Poor kid. So with all that he's not sleeping very well at all. :(

Videos of David

So I went through the camcorder and decided to post some stuff from there which is something I don't do very often. The first video is from August 4th. The second July 17th. The 3rd July 14th. And the last one July 13th. I know they are in reverse, but what are ya gonna do? I know it's all a little outdated by now, but who doesn't like watching cute videos of David. I know I need to update our blog a lot!

6 month stuff

David seems pretty happy about his cereal. :) Notice how it is everywhere! Yeah that's like every day, so now every day is a bath day.
My amazing friend Meagan had a break from her Summer Camp job and decided to come back to Oklahoma for a few days. She and her friend Katie stopped by for a little bit to visit. Poor David scratched him cheek and was super crabby while they were there.
David loves getting into the movies. One of my friends mentioned the wrist rattle. He has no real interest in them, but just like the crinkle noise and chewing on the face.
He sits in this when mommy needs to get ready quickly. It sits in our bedroom yet. This was about 2 weeks ago and I got done getting ready to find him just licking it! LOL!
David doing his little baby pose. He does this a lot for some reason.

Diaper Review

So I'm making this to find out what other people are using because I'm kind of curious when it comes to diapers.
So right now my Favorite diapers are:
Huggies Snug and dry - Since David has started sleeping on his tummy they are the first diaper I found that he doesn't leak out the top of and keeps the poop in!
Pampers Cruisers - Also a great diaper. I'm not sure we have tried this since we got the tummy sleeper or not. But have kept in a lot of pee in!
Pampers Swaddlers - Yes we have been out of that diaper for some time, but they were really nice and I liked them a lot.
So the Ok Diapers go to:
Huggies Little Snugglers - Which is what the hospital gave us. We all right. We had lots of poops, but that could be the fact that we had a little poop monster for a long time!
Luvs - We have only used them like two different time periods. I think David might be a little allergic to it so I have kind of avoided them since. But seeing the price on them I might have to pick them up again soon!
Huggies Sensitive Diapers - Are pretty good, but not really worth it. Seem a little more bulky than need be and since we don't have any allergy problems no scene getting them.
Babies R Us Diapers - Are alright. We bought a few boxes on Black Friday last year for super cheap! They are pretty bulky and kind of have a cheap feel to them, but they did the job for the most party right.
The losers!
Pampers Baby Dry Max - We have had many of wet clothes from these! Not even worth the time of day! They were super thin and didn't hold enough at all! Had to change David every night during the night if I wanted a dry crib in the morning.
Base Exchange Diapers (military store diapers) - So David was changed one day before his nap and napped for about 3 hours and was soaked when he woke up. Yay! So not one I will ever get again, the only bright side of them is that I got them for free.

As for wipes. Favorite being Pampers, then Huggies, and Babies R Us was last. Think those are the only ones I have actually used.

So what are the ones that you like and use most?

We have movement!

So yesterday was David's 6 month birthday! He got his first tooth yesterday also! Today he started pulling himself around on the floor! I cannot believe how fast he's doing everything. I just love him so much.

Food

This is actually the second time that David had cereal. He seemed more happy to have the spoon than the food.

This was the first time that David had cereal. He kept rubbing his face after and got the cereal every where!
David had sweet potatoes and I'm not to sure he liked it all that much.

David 5 month stuff.

So David's 5 month is coming close to a close. He'll be 6 months on the 5th of July. So far this month he's already tried cereal for the first time on Saturday. We tried a sippy cup which made a big mess. He started eating his feet. We took him to his first baby swing on Father's Day. He's been moved up to size 4 diapers. He can wear some size 18 month stuff! He's 21 pounds 4 oz as of Friday! I love my big little man!
