Switched binky's and moved him out of our room and into a crib. It has made a huge difference in his sleeping!

Memorial Day wit cousins! Mom & Dad had another house hunting trip - but A & M stayed with their grandparents and had a great time! 

Dylan has discovered his thumb! He does not suck it all the time, but when he does, it is adorable! 

We have moved! We opted to fly us all cross county instead of drive! A much better option! 

 

Dylan started rice cereal and has been introduced to bananas! He is not terribly interested though! He is more than happy to continue nursing. 

  

Dylan at 6 months...

Has started rice cereal and bananas.  At first he seemed totally interested, now not so much. I am not in a rush to get him started on solids so I have no problem with him taking his time getting used to it.

Almost rolls back to front. I think his chubby thighs keep him grounded.

Gives great hugs - and pulls my hair out of the back of my neck daily!!

First swim. Loved it.

First road trip. Hated it.  But when we made the same trip in our van with Andrew in sight - he did much better!

Wears 6-12 months clothes.

Wears size 4 diapers.

Not the greatest sleeper! But really, the kid is PERFECT during his waking hours.  I'll give him a little slack at night. It's the only time he gets un-interupted attention.

Weighs about 20lbs

He continues to be ONE HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY BOY!!!

Five on Friday

 Andrew climbs the fridge every time he walks by. Who teaches boys this?

 These kids love, love, love rocks. Hand them a bag and they would be happy for hours.

 Pollen count of 8000 and we had a scary few hours.

17 lbs of pure and utter happiness
