Well buds, you turned 6 months yesterday and I can't believe how fast the time has gone! In another 6 months you will be one whole year... and I feel like your dad and I were just coming home from the hospital with you. You were so sweet and so tiny when we brought you home... and you are still sweet but far from tiny! You weigh 19 pounds, and you're almost 27 inches long- such a big boy! You're really helping Mommy's arms get back in shape caring you around places (especially when you're in your car seat).
I had to take you into the doctor today to get a regular check up and everyone adores and remembers you. Your always smiling, making cute new sounds that you're learning, and your so curious about everything that the doctor uses on you (like the tool that looks in your eyes, ears, and the stethoscope). We really love your doctor (and you seem to also) and are so lucky that she takes good care of you. But, today you had to get some shots. And, I think it's harder for me than it is for you. You are SO tough, and even though you cry a little, it's never anything like the babies in the rooms next to us. The second I pick you up and start saying, "Mama's here... it's ok..." you calm down. You still sniffle a little and you bury your head into my shoulder, but for the most part-you get over it fast. It's moments like that when I feel like my heart could explode becasue I love you so much and I can't believe how amazing you are.
Well, I just heard you wake up from your nap. I should wrap this up so I can go kiss you all over.
Happy 6 month birthday Buds! Your dad and I are SO proud of you and so blessed that we get to call you ours and keep you for a while. I love you!!
