IBUBYA...

Yep, it's true....just like my shirt says....CHICKS DIG ME! Here's a video of me talking w/mom over breakfast....listen real close at 12 sec mark....what do you hear??

What a big boy!

Part Fish

Since I enjoy my bath time, mom thought I was ready for my little pool....I got to go swimming for the first time. It was so much fun! Plus I was surrounded by 4 women, who can complain about that?? Oh yeah, and just take a look at this bod! This is what 6 months of dedication looks like, don't be jealous fellas....and stop drooling ladies, there's only one lady for me...my momma!

Memorial Day Wkend 09

We had the gang over all weekend just to hang out & eat! Lots of good food, well that's what everyone said! I enjoyed having so much attention. Here's some pictures from the whole weekend.

6 months old

WoW! I'm 6 months old! I've come such a long way in a short time already. Mommy & Daddy are so proud of me and all the progress I have made along the way. I continue to amaze them everyday. Remember I was only 4lbs 10 oz & 16 3/4in, now at 6 months I am 17lbs 4oz & 25 3/4in....yep growing like a weed!

I like to sit up & try to be independent, but still too wobbly. I like to stand (on your lap or on the floor) & show my big calf muscles (just like daddy). I'm trying to be so big! I'm SO happy!! Very good boy, & still love to smile at everyone who glances my way. I recently found my toes, hmmm...interesting. Love to play & laugh, I can jump in my jumperoo like a crazy man. Had lots of firsts recently....went on our 1st mini vacay to Chicago, 1st motel stay, 1st wedding, 1st Mother's Day, 1st birthday parties, time in a pool, high school baseball game and so much more to come!

I can hold my sippy cup & put it up to my mouth, can get a drink but most of it runs back out. I'm learning though! I like taking baths & get excited hearing the water running in the tub. I enjoy playing peek-a-boo. I can put a blanket over my face & pull it down for you to say BOO! Then I giggle or smile & do it again & again. Mommy gave me a deadline for rolling from back to belly before my next check up. Since I'm such a good boy, I listened! Watch me!!

At my 6 month check up I weighed 17lbs 4oz & 26in. I'm in the 30th percentile for weight & 50th for height. See I have caught up just like Mamaw Clark has always said I would by now! I got shots again but barely even started to cry. I even gave the shot lady smiles after them. She said that made her day, because she usually doesn't get any smiles just tears. Dr Johnston was very impressed by how well I can sit by myself & all my other tricks. Plus my umbilical hernia is shrinking more & more.

Sometimes I "sing" myself to sleep, mommy thinks that is so cute & thinks it's probably because I don't want to hear her singing! I chew and chew on everything. Teeth anyday now?!?!? I'll keep you informed. Oh yeah, I am trying to push up on my knees when I'm playing on the floor. I can scooch around and roll here to there, just trying to go, go, go!!

Beginning of May, 16lbs 9oz.....end of May 18lbs 3oz.
