Six months old (two days late!)!

He's six months old now, which is amazing. Time flies and etc. We've tried twice now to get a new version of the football picture and failed. Here are our attempts.

First, I tried on his *actual* birthday. He was more interested in wrestling the football into submission and sucking on it than posing.

I think I'll let his dad's attempt speak for itself:Happy 6-months old, kid!

It's starting already...

I think we need to childproof some things asap.
He was very interested in Madden 2005. His dad will be so proud!

Places to go...

He's really trying to get places. He can travel short distances by a combination of spinning and rolling, and he kicks like a pro!

Crazy kid

Apparently, the little guy thinks his dad's chin is delicious! He latched on today while being burped, and stayed there for a while. Luckily the camera was close by and I managed to capture this special moment.

When he stopped, he was all "What? Why are you two laughing?"

He also accompanied us to the driving range today. He played while we hit some golf balls. And tonight when we put him down in his crib he looked around, rolled onto his belly, and fell asleep. Wahoo!

While the cat's away...

Well the little booger's mom is out of town on business so I got to take care of him today. This means I get to dress him in the outfits I want!!

I think he was a little surprised that I managed to feed him and dress him and get him to the doctor on time. But then again, he's surprised by his feet.

Pears!

He had pears for the first time yesterday morning.

He's getting slightly more methodical about eating-- he seems less surprised with every bite. He's also started watching us eating with great interest.

The part he's the best at is sucking the mess off his bib. He's very serious about it, as you can see.

His sense of humor is genetic...

This morning, he grabbed my arm, grinned, farted, and then giggled. He's definitely my son-- nothing makes me laugh like a fart.
