Let me brag...

So I have to brag for a moment. Every year around my birthday or Christmas or our anniversary Bill gets so funny. If I give him a hard time, he threatens to return my gift even though most of the time he hasn't gotten me anything. He will say things like, " You can do this or get your b-day present". It is funny and goes on for like the month before the big day.

WELL, this year he really caught me off guard. He started with his usual jokes a couple weeks ago, but last night he gave me my present early...
Can you say YUMMY! What a thoughtful gift, I have been aching to get back into photography and wanting to find a hobby that I love. I can't believe that he took the time to do the research and thought about something that I would really love. What a great hubby! I love him more each day! Okay, done bragging but you can still be jealous! (:

6 months old!

I can't believe my baby is 6 months old already! He is getting so big! He weighs 20 pounds and is 27.5 inches long, 90th percentile for both. Easton is such a happy boy and we love playing with him and seeing him grow.

Easton now will:
  • Roll over on his side, still not all the way
  • Eat his hands as much as possible
  • Grab his toys
  • Sit up almost by himself
  • Stand up with help but would all day if someone would help him
  • Blow bubbles with his spit
  • Talks more in funny babbles
  • Laughs
  • Is so interested in the world around him




Another lake day

We went to the lake this morning since Bill's cousin was in town. It was really fun and nice to see Alex back trying crazy tricks again. Easton will be wakeboarding before we know it!

Ticklish feet

Easton's feet are so ticklish that he can hardly handle it! Bill runs his scruffy face along Easton's feet and he almost pops!

Bananas

I started giving Easton baby food this week. He loves bananas! Easton loves his bib so much and wants to eat it for dinner, so we had to get rid of the distraction and he eats much better.

It is so funny cause he wants to eat his hand with his bananas!

Happy but sick baby!

A week ago, Easton woke up happy but grunting so being the good mom that I am I thought he needed to poo. Well as the morning went on, he got a fever and we went into the doctor. Turns out, he had pneumonia! We spent 4 days in the hospital and he was such a happy kid during the whole experience...



Except when they gave him medicine. One night he was so mad while we gave him his meds that he threw up from crying so hard... ALL over me!


Easton is so chubby that it was hard for the nurses to put in his IV. So he ended up it in his head, scary looking but Easton didn't mind.

Chillin in the lazy boy! Easton loves sitting up like a big boy.


Time to go home! We were so excited to get out of that small room and so glad he was feeling better!
