I vaguely remember a conversation (on a thread) about how at the 6 month mark, your energy stores drop and you become TIRED. I feel exhausted all the time lately. Oscar is so much fun, but he is a lot more work than newborn Oscar. Newborn Oscar took long long naps and would be happy to play by himself sometimes. Oscar at the moment wants to play with lots of things all at once. He also wants to move in ways he hasn't quite figured out, so he gets frustrated and cranky.
This sounds like complaining, but I'm not. Because he is actually so much fun to play with now. Peek-a-boo is no longer scary! He laughs out loud. He thinks his reflection is funny. I want to update on all the good things going on....
But man am I tired. TIRED. tired. tired.
Sing it, Lennon.

How did I not know about this 6 month marker thing? It certainly fits with my experience.
it's definitely not an exact science, but it makes sense doesn't it? because you're all hyped up on adrenaline those first few months to every sound and movement they make. Now it's just the flow of life....
