Bobby at 6 Months!

Bobby...halfway there! you are halfway there to not being my baby anymore...but joke is on you because guess what? you will ALWAYS be my baby...so just deal and make fun behind my back like the babies do, K?

so this month you are officially on the move - you are exuding your uncanny super baby strength...i saw you do a push up with just your left hand and right foot...(for any of you silly enough to try it...its freakin hard! we know...we have been trying...for the record Bryan can do one)

you tasted your first foods...and are consuming them like i have been starving you...you have tried carrots, spinach, rutabaga, broccoli, pears, bananas, apples, bread, and paper. goodness you love paper...you get super dooper upset if we take paper away from you. i am going to buy some seaweed paper whenever i remember to and let you go to town!

you came with us to portland to meet your very special "twin" Ezra (born almost exactly 24 hours after you). it was so fun for daddy and i to spend some alone time with you enjoying your baby self! we smothered you all weekend with attention and kisses and competing to make you laugh.

daddy carried you in the Bjorn throughout the trip and everyone would comment and oooh and aaah over how cute you are...it made daddy feel like a rock star (i dont think he minded all the attention one bit!)

you are enjoying sitting up and putting anything in your mouth you can get a hold of...like dirt...you tasted dirt for the first time by the way.

we moved you out of our room, much to the sadness of mama, but you seem to enjoy it since you sleep sooo much better, much to the happiness of mama! you like to sleep on your tummy and scoot your little legs up and i like to watch you sleep and try to whisper to you to stop growing so fast! you dont listen...of course!

no teeth yet...no hair either...we adore your gummy smile and i have a feeling your 7th month may see an end to it.

you love your brothers too and they return that love right back, especially Bryson...he missed you so so much while we were gone!

we love you Bobby B.!
