This is a blog about our life. I started the blog because we lived overseas for my husbands job. That meant it was hard to keep family, back in The States, in the loop about what we were up to. It also became a great way to share my sons birth story with everyone who we wish could have been there. I slowly got busy with life & stopped blogging. Here we are in 2014, living back in the good ol' USA & as we make life changes I find this to be a great way to share my thoughts and save them for my son to look back on someday.

We have a 6 month old!

Crazy, crazy! Can't believe our little man is already 6 months old...well he is almost 7 months old already but Im behind in blogging. So we needs stats. First let's start with his Dr appt. I normally don't mind his appointments at all because I really like his Dr and he seems pretty good at what he does. However, I was thrown for a loop when we got back to the exam room because the nurse or whoever he was said "she'll be right in". Umm...his Dr is a male....whatever. I figured what the heck. We're here we'll see her. Wish I would have just rescheduled. There wasn't anything WRONG with her really, I just didn't like her as much as I like his Dr. His Dr really checks him out and goes over everything in detail. I felt she was just more interested in telling me how cute he was and how strong he was....I mean this stuff I already know LOL. Anyways, it was a short visit...and this it was time for SHOTS! Ohhhh man. This kid is like the miniature Hulk. I kind of felt bad for the guy giving him shots because This Kid was not about to let him hold his legs in place, he pulled them right out of his hands. Shots were much more painful this time for whatever reason. He was one upset baby. Of course a bottle took care of that RIGHT AWAY. And just like that we were on our way home. So the stats...
Weight: 19lb 3oz
Length 27.5in
Head Circumference: 17.5in
So he is in about the 75th %  for all of these. He is a healthy happy baby boy!

On his 6 month birthday he started eating FOOD!

and he started using sippy cups

Right after shots
