We Finally Have a Tooth

After 3 long, exhausting days of screaming, your first tooth finally popped through yesterday!
So on July 23, 2013 you got your very first tooth! My baby is growing way too fast!

At least you were finally happy :)

6 Months Old! HALF A YEAR!

You are now 6 months old. Your half birthday lands on the 4th of July! Your first 4th of July was just fantastic! We went to Laurel for the day. We started at the park with Cherish and Lucas and it unfortunately down poured. On the bright side, Cherish brought a nice big umbrella that the four of us spent about 45 minutes under waiting for the rain to subside. After the rain finally let up we decided to get something to eat. Since there had been so much rain, the vendors had water collected on top of their canopies. While we were getting our food, the vendor decided to use a stick to push the water off. It was a great idea except all the water landed right on top of you! You were soaking wet but you barely cried. You're such a trooper. After that I figured it was a good idea to head home to Grandma Silvia's, so we could go to Nickie's for her annual 4th of July party. It was a ton of fun. You just let everyone hold you and love on you. You were asleep during the fireworks but I would still say it was a pretty successful holiday.

Now onto your stats. At your 6 month appointment you weighed in at 19 lbs. 6 oz.! My big boy. You were 26.8 inches. So basically you're short and chubby but we love you that way! The doctor said you are perfect and developing great! You are now sitting on your own! You are so happy and social! You are still a mama's boy and I wouldn't have it any other way!

& of course some pictures!

Distracted...

All wore out after the festivities

mmm.. pickles

This past weekend you and I went to visit some of our family. Everyone absolutely adored you of course and EVERYONE wanted to feed you. I was lenient since we were on vacation. You got to taste pineapple, jerky, carrots, licorice, & pickles! You pretty much loved everything. You are mama's little foodie!

Just hagin with the ladies
