Marcel, my darling boy, it is hard to believe 6 months have come and gone. You have blessed us with your sweet, charming demeanor more than we thought possible. It has been such a joy watching you grow these first six months of your life into the curious little boy you are becoming. You have added so much to our little family, and we are beyond grateful to call you our own. The Lord has been so good to us, and we could never say thank you enough for the privilege it is to be the mother and father of you and your big sister.
Every day you are moving a bit more than the day before, finding new things to study with your sweet blue eyes, and becoming more aware of all that goes on around you. You have the most genuine eyes and love gazing into our eyes while you ever so softly stroke our cheek with your soft hands. The shape of your fingers remind me of Grandpa D's and I like that little detail of yours a whole lot. You have become quite quick with your hands, and are constantly grabbing at whatever it is that is within your reach. Your toes have become your favorite chew toy, and it is the cutest thing to watch. You grab hold of your feet, one in each hand, and rock back and forth as you decide which one to stick in your mouth. Rolling around the floor is done with great ease these days, along with inching yourself around, spinning in circles. You try with great determination to get up on all fours, but are yet to figure it out without nose diving into the floor while reaching for things to put in your mouth, which is EVERYTHING. You are intrigued by everything and graze your little fingers over each object with such care and concern. Gentleness is something I pray sticks with you my boy, as you grow and take on the world.
Our days are pretty routine, and it is a good thing because you and Zaylee are big fans of predictability. Although, you are both equally just as flexible and go with the flow no matter what we throw your way. We are blessed! Naps are still your strong point with three solid naps about every two hours, but we are still working on sleeping without waking in the night. You still wake up anywhere between 3-5, and after letting your cry for about ten minutes or so I feed you and you fall back to sleep immediately. I can't complain as I know other mom's have it much harder, but I still look forward to the night you decide to just keep on sleeping!
Life is good here in the Tabailloux house, and we couldn't ask for two more beautiful blessings. Watching you and your sister together is such an honor, and the best reality check when I am being a downer. The joy that oozes out of the two of you when you are laughing with one another is nearly too much to handle for this Mama's heart. You have the sweetest tone and we can't get enough of your talking noises. Along with your happy noises, you have the most adorable fake whine that makes us smile every time. I love you my sweet, sweet boy and am so thankful to be the one to watch you grow and change each day!
