Yesterday Siddhartha turned 18 months. I remember last year running into an 18 month old at the airport and being amazed at how well she said “bébé” (she was French) when she saw Siddhartha. So I had an expectation that Siddhartha would be able to speak at least a word or two by now.

This first year of parenting started roughly and going into year two still has its challenges but the ride has become enjoyable.

It’s hard to believe that Sidd’s spent more time out of the womb than in. We’ve also lived in our home longer with the baby than without. Time is clearly flying.

Siddhartha: The sixth month

Things have been mostly stable. Sleep has been somewhat all over the place – 3-7 hours or so. The worst thing is dealing with the “witching hour.” Siddhartha’s not colicky, but definitely fussy in the early evenings, in cars and just before he does his big sleep for the night. Now that we know to expect this, it’s not as alarming.

One of the things I’ve heard from other fathers is that they love bottle-feeding. I hate it.
