6 Months old

Sweet baby Gift is SIX MONTHS OLD!! How? Really? Our sweet boy with the happiest, easiest personality has already hit 19 pounds, has two bottom teeth (owww!), and the start of solid foods:




He is so strong...full of personality. He's saying syllable babbles (Da, Da, Ba, Ba), and can rock on his knees as well as scoot backwards (though he is sneaky).

He smiles all the time, belly laughs, coos, loves to roll to me to cuddle, loves to nurse, and is slowly trying solids.

He is still co-sleeping with us, but we're working his room eventually - but we are in no rush. This is such precious time and it goes TOO fast.

He has gone from this tiny baby:


To this big 6 month old:

How has this happened? Please...tell me?

Dearest Gift...thank you for being one of the best gifts we've ever received. God, thank you for the gift of our son. We once thought if we'd have one baby...then one more...now...we have three. God IS Good. But do I HAVE to plan a 1st b-day in 6 months? Why does time pass so fast?

Love you dear son!!

  1. He's simply adorable. I love his expression in the third picture. It's the kind of expression that made me squeal with delight when my girls were babies. He seems like he's growing up way too fast.
