It's mid December and we are very busy with parties and friends/family visits. Alex is growing so BIG and is so responsive. We are having a blast showing him off and introducing him to new things. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Holiday Pictures

We tooks some holiday pictures for our greeting card. We were very happy with the outcome. Alex is 6 1/2 months old now. He is eating baby food like a pro, sleeping through the night, abd babbling up a storm. It's amazing how he grows and changes everyday! We are so blessed with our happy, healthy family. Happy Holidays to our wonderful friends and family.

Happy Thanksgiving! We are blessed with health, happiness, and love from all our family and friends. Alex started rice cereal on 11/14 and solid foods last night. We selected sweet potato in honor of thanksgiving. He seemed to really like it and loves sitting in his high chair!! Alex had a 6 mo check up Tuesday, his current stats are: 17lbs, 17 1/4" long. 79% height, 42% weight.

High Chair!

1st meal - rice cereal!

hurray, he likes it!

Alex had a good week. He started rice cereal and sat up in his high chair. He's loving jumping in his jumperoo ... we have to pull him out after 45 minutes to rest his little legs.

5 1/2 mo - achievements !!

Our little champ's 1st tooth poked through his bottom gum line Sunday morning about 5am AND Monday about 3:30 am he rolled over!! What achievements he made in 2 days!

End of October

I have learned a big, puffy turtle costume was NOT the best choice for Alex's 1st Halloween. He did not like being it it or us taking pictures of him, while he was in it. He had the costume on for 30 minutes, maybe... oh well.

Wow time sure passes by quickly. Alex is 5 1/2 months old already. It was a BUSY week!! We had a visit to the pumpkin patch and a party at Gymboree. Plus the weather cooled off a bit so we could break out his warmer weather clothes.
