Baptism

Christopher was baptized on Sunday. We had some family and one of my good friends attend the service. Christopher was all smiles, but so tired by the end when we took pictures. He fell asleep on Kellee's shoulder almost immediately. I know I've said it a million times, but we are so blessed and thankful that God placed Christopher in our lives!

Family at Baptism.
While Grandpa Barney was here for the Baptism he presented Christopher with the rocking chair that he had when he was young. He even wrote a poem and recited it to Christopher while he was rocking. Grandpa Barney is so talented! I know Christopher will have many relaxing rocks in his new chair.

Thank you Grandpa Barney!

6 Months

Happy 6 Months!
A few things to remember about his month...
*You currently weigh 19 pounds 6 ounces and are 27 1/4  inches long. You are in the 80th percentile for both so you are proportional. 
* You started rolling over on a normal basis.
* You sit up for extended periods of time with no support.
*You started eating baby food (squash, sweet potatoes, green beans, peas).
* Your hair is getting wavy and curly.
* You hung out in the pool on vacation and loved being in the water.
* We tried taking you into the ocean, but we think the waves might have scared you. 
* You wake up during the middle of the night and talk to yourself in your crib. 
* You move around your crib during the night and we never know where we are going to find you. You have also started sleeping on your stomach, side and with your knees folded under you. 
* You LOVE to blow raspberries!
* You had to get a DOC Band (helmet) for your head to help with the flatness. It hasn't phased you one bit. Mommy is the one having a hard time with it, but I know it is for the best. It makes it hard to see your expressive face when we are playing. 
* You are drooling like crazy! Pretty soon you won't be toothless.

It is hard to believe you are half a year old! The time has flown by and pretty soon you will be one. Next month is busy, but I will continue to enjoy every single minute I get to spend with you during these summer months!! 

You love eating your vegetables.

So strong!
