Judah Beau | 5 Months

Thursday, June 9, 2016

I can't believe it has almost been half a year with our little guy! Time is flying by and I'm not okay with it. He has developed SO much this month and I am noticing little changes in his face everyday. A lot of people have been telling me that he resembles me a lot lately and I'm okay with that ;) I still think he is his Dada made over though!

 This is what really happens when we take monthly pictures!

At 5 months, Judah Beau...

...weighs 14.3lbs

...is 24.7 inches long

...is in size 3 diapers

...is wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes with the occasional 9 month jumper. He has such a long torso so he's in 6 month onesies and 3 month pants because of his skinny little waist!

...is still sleeping like a champ. 8-10 hours at night. #ThankYouJesus

...hates drinking his bottles. He is so distracted by e v e r y t h i n g so that makes it so hard to feed him. We are trying out a  new schedule this week so we will see how that goes!

...has tried his first purees! I have made him carrots, avocado and sweet potatoes and he loves all of them! Carrots are his fav :) He would much rather eat these all day than drink his bottles. 

...does SO good with a spoon! 

...can officially sit up by himself. He just decided one day that it was time and he does so well! It makes him look like such a big boy!

...helps hold his bottles and it's the cutest thing ever. 

...is still the happiest baby. So many smiles and giggles! He's a pretty big flirt too ;)

...has started to not like his car seat. He wants to be sitting up SO bad and his car seat doesn't sit up enough for him. He is constantly trying to sit up in it!

...loves his exersaucer! He will play his little heart out in it. Thank you Nana ;)

...is a little rolie police! If he is laying on his back he will flip right over within seconds. 

...still uses his paci to help soothe him to sleep but any other time he doesn't want it unless we are letting him chew on it :)

...beat the sleep regression. He started waking up around 8:30 instead of 9:30 so we can't complain AT ALL! Boy loves his sleep. 

...follows people and their voices. I will be feeding Judah in the living room and he will hear Blake in the kitchen and bam, head is turned and eating is out of the question. He see's dada in the kitchen and will follow him with his eyes until he comes and says something to him. 

...reaches for everything! Anything that is in his view he wants in his hands and then into his mouth! 

...is occasionally sucking his thumb when he is sleepy. Such a bad habit but I can't stop him because it's so cute!

...had his first ride in the stroller without his car seat attached to it! Our little curious boy was so happy. 


Every month with or boy is a gift and it just keeps getting better and better. Witnessing the growing and learning is one of the best parts of being a mama! We can't remember what life was like before you, bubba. We love you more than you will ever know!

Stranded with Shay & Erika | Netflix Edition

Tuesday, June 7, 2016

It's Wednesday and we are stranded with Shay & Erika

Also linking up with Jessi

This month is all about Netflix. Having to pick only 3 Netflix series is so hard! But hey, if I'm on a deserted island that has Netflix, I'd stay a while ;)

All three of my picks are classics. I've seen every episode, multiple times, and they still never get old. These are my go to Netflix picks when I want to binge watch something! 

ONE


I'm about to stat watching this over again for the 100th time because I just can't get enough. I. Love. Friends. Blake and I started watching it together on New Years day 2 years ago and finished in like 2 months so I think it's time to start again :)

#hesherlobster #howyoudoin #pivot

TWO


I have watched this show since it first aired on ABC and I'm still hooked! I watched all the seasons on Netflix way too many times in college and I still go back and watch them now. I love, love, love this show and I'll keep watching, until Shonda pulls another crazy move and makes me all...
Three


My very favorite show! I watched this all throughout middle/high school and cried like a baby when it ended. Then I watched it another 100 times when it came on Netflix. I secretly wish I was Brooke Davis. I have a whole trip planned out to go visit where it was filmed and can't wait to go one day. #nerd 

This still makes me cry...

They are still goals...

And this still gives me butterflies...

These are my Netflix favorites, y'all. I wouldn't mind being stranded on an island with these shows for a while ;)

Weekend Recap

Monday, June 6, 2016

Happy Monday, lovelies! I'm exhausted this morning because we got home from being out of town at 1am this morning and unpacking and putting Judah Beau back to bed took a while so I'm running off of about 5 hours of sleep and a giant cup of coffee today! 

We had another fun weekend with family and celebrating lots of graduates! 

I've known these girls since they were little, little! I babysat them and now they are graduated...#imold

Also, it was pouring down rain and we walked in said rain to get inside to graduation so my hair is a fizzy mess! The rain & my hair are not friends.

Judah hasn't been feeling too well so Friday we had a pretty lazy day of just letting him recover from a pretty yucky bug. He got lots of snuggles from his great-grandma :)

Saturday Blake and my dad had a guys day and my mom, my grandma and me had a girls day with Judah! We shopped till we dropped.

Who said dressing boys isn't fun?? 

My grandma gave Judah his first taste of a pickle and he loved it! He didn't even make a face like it was sour! I guess he will love pickles just like his mama :)

That night we celebrated one of our friends that had recently graduated from college. Judah played some cornhole with the guys ;) 

My dad had been smoking a brisket all night/morning and so Sunday after church we had the best lunch ever! My dad makes the best bbq...like ever. I won't eat bbq out at places because it doesn't compare to his! 

My brother and sister-in-law and their kiddos were there and they love Judah Beau! 

We spent the rest of the evening at Blake's grandparents house and then headed back home. 

That's all from our fun filled weekend!

I made a new Instagram account dedicated solely to this blog!! Follow me @becomingthekelchs to keep up with our daily life and to see way too many pictures of my cute baby!
