Latest Stats - 6 month check-up

Age: 6 months

Height: 27"


Weight: 16 lbs 0 oz

Teeth: 2

Diet: breast milk, rice cereal, sweet potatoes, toes

Actions: rolling over both ways, sitting up all by himself

New Firsts (where possible illustrated in pictures below): teeth, solid food, baseball game, "sink bath", beach day, play date with Asher at home, visit from Scottie the Hottie, visit from Uncle David and Scott B (can't believe we didn't take ANY pictures...too busy surfing, I guess)

He's not sure about the cereal...thinks he'll stick with toes!

Not at the baseball game, but he looks like a little ball player here!


Post beach day bath to get the sand out of the cracks!

Josh - 6 months, Asher 3 months

BONUS!!!!

This is the start of our new landscaping. It's hard to see with the shadows, but there's a red hibiscus on the left corner, a bird of paradise in the middle (now with begonias around it), and a hot pink oleander on the right corner. I'm very excited. We're doing a little bit at a time, so hopefully soon we'll buy some bushes to fill in below the windows and some African iris around the bird of paradise.

1st fever results in 1st tooth!

Joshua got his first fever on Sunday. We weren't sure if he was fighting off a flu-like virus that I had last week or if he was teething. He's been drooling like a maniac and chewing on anything he can get his hands on for months now, but until yesterday, there were no resulting teeth. His fever broke yesterday afternoon, and as I was putting him to bed I felt inside his mouth and there was something rough in the middle of his bottom gum! His FIRST tooth! I haven't been able to catch a glimpse of it yet since he always sticks his tongue out when I try to look in there, but I'm sure as it comes in it'll get easier to see. That's most of the excitement around here this week...the weather is overcast, so we're feeling pretty lazy.


Chase and Joshua -- both 5 months old

Playing outside

Nice day at the beach

Hammock time!

Sorry it's turned sideways...I don't know how to fix it!
