Ben, 7 & 8 Months Old

7 months

Weight: 18.5lbs
Wearing: Mostly wearing 9 months, but some of the Cloud Island 3-6 month sleepers still fit. Score!
Favorite Things: Rolling around on the floor, pulling hair, chewing on everything.
Biggest Milestone: Rolling consistently and getting his first tooth! 
Biggest Challenge: Sleep. I miss my little baby who slept through the night.
My Favorite Part of This Stage: Messy baby face while Ben is eating. He loves almost everything, so far he has only not liked bananas.
Looking Forward To: Hopefully some better sleep after he gets his first tooth. And getting into a better schedule day-to-day.

Also, please know I was buckling him into his carseat after daycare and stopped to take the photo of him above. I did not carry him in his carseat or drive in the car with his chest clip this loose. :)

8 months

Weight: 19.5lbs
Wearing: 9 months
Favorite Things: Anything that belongs to his sister. Now that he can crawl, he is in to everything! He wants whatever she is playing with. 
Biggest Milestone: Crawling and getting his second tooth. Also – being home with mama all day! ;)
Biggest Challenge: Ben being mobile… time to baby proof all the things. Also, still not sleeping consistently at night. I chalk it up to teething.
My Favorite Part of This Stage: Listening to his babbling and seeing how proud he is of himself as he is crawling around.
Looking Forward To: Ben learning some words.

Ben, we love that you’re so outgoing and you love to smile. Your sister can’t wait for you to start chasing her around.

Hi! I'm Trista

I'm a wife and a mom of three. I live in Iowa where I spend my time chasing my babies, chugging caffeine, reading books and avoiding the laundry. I'm so happy you're here!

The perfect way to spend a few hours on a 95° day! Was just scrolling through stories, saw someone say it had a “lesbian narrative” and laughed out loud. Have you seen it? I apparently missed all of the controversy surrounding the movie, which means I’ve done a great job of filtering out my feed of people who don’t approve of GaYnEsS. 👋🏻👋🏻

Happy Father’s Day JP! He’s the one who supports our family, the doer of the dishes, the planner of the trips, the parent who makes sure the kids brush their teeth, and the one who will happily jumps into the cold, highly-chlorinated water of hotel pools to make these three happy. I had no idea how challenging parenthood would be. I am so lucky I chose a partner who is so positive and outgoing (the opposite of me 🫠) to raise a family with. ❤️
