6 Months!! 1/2 Year!!

Guess who is 6 months old!!
ME!! It's my first half birthday!

Lets face it the fact that I've lived this long is surprising if you've met my parents ;) lol.
So mommy said I should talk about all the things I can now do :)
Like roll over on my own all sorts of ways. I can get across the floor to toys. I can grasp things well and even switch hands. I let mommy and daddy know what I want with a series of grunts and whines. I LOVE the kitties, but they don't like me. I laugh out loud at all sorts of things. Mommy and daddy like to make silly faces and stuff. I get really silly acting when I get tired. I take longer naps, which mommy is happy about and I'm down to two a day. I still get her up rather early some days (like today). I still sleep with my mommy and daddy, it's better that way...we all get way more sleep. Mommy says I'm almost weaned, whatever that means. All I know I don't get access to her boobies until the sun goes down. Which kind of sucks but I don't mind it THAT much, or atleast I don't tell mommy I do. I eat big girl food three times a day now. Once in the morning which is usually some sort of cereal (I don't like oatmeal!) and fruit, then around 5 I get dinner which is fruit and a veggie, then just before bed mommy now gives me cereal again, but rice cereal. Right now I'm trying out Barley cereal and like it sort of. I like rice cereal the best. Mommy talks about me trying wheat next. I also have eaten prunes, pears, peaches, green beans, squash, sweet potatoes, and carrots. I don't mind my fruits and veggies at all :)

Anyways thats about everything I can think of to say. Mommy wanted me to share these pictures just do you can see how much harder it is to get me to take a picture with the bunny. I don't see what the big deal is. I mean the bunny is STILL in the picture :) hehehehe

Oh and btw it's mommy's birthday today :)
Happy Birthday Mommy!!

The Compare and Contrast....

Alright so mommy has finally found the pictures, the scanner cord and the scanner :) Which means we can now compare my naturally cute good looks to mommy and daddy's when they were my size :)

Here are Daddy's baby pictures first:






Here are Mommy's:






And here are some of mine just in case you forgot :)










Alright mommy knows what she thinks and I really don't care...they are both kind of ugly so I'm hoping I don't look like EITHER of them...but lets see what you think! Vote in the poll!!

Bubbles!

Mommy took me into the big peoples tub and as a special treat she filled it with bubbles. It was so cool!

This is what happens when daddy....

DRESSES ME

FEEDS ME

Poor daddy, mommy is always picking on. But really I don't care...I got to spit carrots ALL over daddy and laughed when he got mad...he's funny like that :) hehehehe
I love you daddy!!

Bananas and Oatmeal!

Okay so I tried these awhile ago,
but this is the week of old things that mommy is finally posting so here is a fun video :)




While we are at it...here's one from my first bite of oatmeal :)

Look at me being a BIG Girl :)

I can now sit up in the cart like a big girl :) I need the strap to help keep me there, but I no longer NEED my seat :) yay!

I guess you ARE what you EAT!

Look at me i'm a pea!

This thing was hard to roll in...I couldn't...so mommy had to put me on my tummy for me...

Wait Mommy hasn't even given me peas yet...then what the heck am I doing in a pea costume?

I love it Grandma!

Cat Coat :)

Thats all folks :)

I ate Poop...I mean Prunes!

Mommy fed me prunes...

...alright they weren't too bad...but you have got to admit they look alot like poop...and I don't like to look like i've been eating poop!

My first bite of prunes.
Not bad for mommy running the camera while feeding me :)
Good Job Mommy you held the camera the RIGHT way!

This is what I think about getting shots!

And before you ask, mommy did NOT put my finger like that...I did it and grandma took the picture :)

Pictures from Grandma and Grandpa's

Grandma bought a highchair this past summer so I would have something to sit in while I ate my dinner. It made me look so SMALL! It must have been made for a giant! Grandpa was trying to feed me my dinner. But I wasn't like it much. Mommy must have given him green beans or something like that.

Thats okay I washed it down with some fake tea :) I've been told this is the same tea cup that my Great Grandma Henry used to pretend with when was a little girl. Thats pretty cool.

Oh and Grandma and Grandpa got new carpet :) Look at me rolling all over it :) hehehehe...Mommy just said I had better not spit up and I didn't :)

Pictures from Grammie and Gramps

Here are some pictures from our trip north.

I got to meet more of my relatives on Daddy's side. Here I am with my Aunt Linda :)

Here I am hanging with the girls at the table :)


I also spent a little time with Uncle Zach, but I'm not so sure about him sometimes. He's kind of scary and he's always talking about slapping me and stuff :\ But I'm sure I will like him more as I get older and can bug him more :)

I had to share Grammies lap alot.
Callie and I fit pretty well together there. but....

It got a little crowded with my two cousins Jen and Jessica.

I even met Diddle, she's a pretty cool shark. Dakota is pretty cool too :) He helped mommy get me ready for bed on night. He's not afraid of hand cream like daddy is!

Oh and Daddy learned how to play something that is like music on the guitar :) Thank you Jordan!

Hanging With Xavier

Xavier's Mommy and Daddy wanted to go out to a no babies allowed dinner so he came over to visit us :) It was pretty cool since I hadn't seem him in awhile. Plus we got to play together before I had to go to bed :) He's a few months older than me, but he's alot bigger.




We played on my play mat together. Xavier was having fun with all the "new" toys, but I was way more interested in him, since he was new to me.

I think he's kind of cute...what do you think? Think he likes me? Mommy says I'm being such a girl...what does that mean?

Miss Me?

Darn Mommy...she's been just too busy baby proofing and cleaning the apartment, no time for blogging she said. Silly Mommy doesn't she know I can only roll right now? Well just in case you can't remember my name here's a reminder ;)


More posts will be popping up in the coming days so be sure to check back with me to see what I've been up to :) :) :)

RIP Nan

Last week we lost a member of the family. I've only had the chance to know her the past few months, but mommy and daddy said she was very special and kind. They talk about how I would have loved her doughnuts and that she loved me very much. They are sad that I won't have any memories of her myself but tell me that I will know of her through their stories. Just like how mommy has gotten to know daddy's papa. I've now lost two great grandma's since being born, so I will have to rely on the family to tell me things about them so I know them and not just know OF them :) Here are some pictures from one of our visits before she passed away. I think I was the last baby she held, which makes me feel a little special. I know she made a wish on me the first time she held me, but i'm not telling you what it was ;) Do you think maybe the first baby she held when she got to where she was going was my sister? I'm cuter though, right? On to the pictures.

Oh and I just want to say that my angel sister has enough relatives with her at this point, the rest of you stay healthy so I get you all to myself for LONG while :) I'm selfish like that ;)

Out of 3-6 months...

...on to 6-9 month clothes!

Mommy is a little sad...all the cute clothes she picked out she now has to pack away and/or sell :\ There isn't as much for the larger sizes...so I guess that means she needs to go shopping right? ;)
We officially emptied my drawers a few days ago and mommy already washed the 9+ month stuff so it will be ready again when I'm ready to move on up again. It seems to be the trend that I switch clothes a month before my age reaches them, which isn't too bad I've been told. I've even outgrown some of my socks! Mommy says I'm getting too big I need to stop growing, which I don't understand since SHE'S the one feeding me!
