Asleep

Mommy loves this picture

5-month pics with the bear

Here I am again - I now weigh 19# and am almost 26" tall!!! (This was from yesterday's 6-month visit at the pediatrician) 6-month pics with the bear to come this weekend!

Trying the sippy cup

So now we are trying the sippy cup - I haven't quite figured out how this thing works.  Most of the time I just end up pretty wet

More FOOD!!!

I have gone crazy eating - and am now refusing (yes, refusing!!) any and all bottles

Don't I look like Mommy's daddy? (except of course, I am growing SOME hair - if you look closely)

Up HIGH!

I LOVE it when Daddy swings me up high - so far I haven't spit up on him yet...

Danielle visits

Danielle came into town to visit and go to Steve and Kelley's wedding

MESSY!

I am a pretty messy eater... it's not like Mommy and Daddy miss my mouth or anything ;)

Look how big I'm getting...

hanging out in the swing (I think I am getting close to the limit - what do you think???)

Trying again...

so after a little more time, Mommy and Daddy decided to try cereal again - now I LOVE it!!! and I really, REALLY like to eat bananas! YUM!

Hanging out...

with Zane - one of my favorite spots on the couch!

starting early

Daddy has introduced me to electronics - I gaze at the stereo fondly and often... so far he only lets me play with the timer!

First bites

I tried cereal for the 1st time in August...

as you might be able to tell - I was not the world's biggest fan of it

New toy!

this is a picture of me in my new Jumperoo - I just haven't quite figured out how to use it... but these flashing toys sure are cool!!!  I really like it when Mommy bounces me in it - she keeps looking at me like I am supposed to do something myself

All right here we go... (marathon update!!!)

Sorry for the long delay in updates - I have been VERY busy staying up late partying in my crib all night long... my parents keep trying to get me to sleep

Here I am holding my bottle - these are some of the last times I took a bottle willingly.  These days I am not so into drinking from a bottle (but that's a whole 'nother story!)
