All Grows Up

Our baby is 6 months old!!

So what is he up to?

Teething...


Squealing like a teradactyl....

Looking beautiful....

Exploring....

And eating rice cereal!!! Here's a recap:

Ooohh, a bib!


Ooohh, a spoon!


Ooohh, the cereal!



He's a complete natural when it comes to chowing down! He had it all mastered (hands out of the way, mouth open, swallowing instead of spitting out) by halfway through the first feeding! Now he gets excited when he sees the bib come out, and he has his own eating soundtrack. It goes something like, "Um num, Yum num."

Unfortunately, tonight the little man's feeling pretty under the weather, following his first round of shots...hopefully, tomorrow he'll be back to his happy self.

Gus is so cute. I'm glad he's at least liking the rice cereal! How'd his appointment go? How big is he? I hope the reunion went well. We've ended up quite sick so we're glad we didn't come share. We're finally getting better today. :p At least Troy only had the bug for 24 hours. :) God is god. I can't believe how fast 6 months has gone!!!! :(
