1st time at the park

We live across the street from a very nice park. It was a decent day out so we decided to take Aaron over to the swings. He really liked it.

I love my Daddy.

Aaron loves his Daddy.

But sometimes it is a tie between his Daddy and his hand.

Aaron and Jerome have such a great bond. It warms my heart everytime time I see them play together.

I love to jump!!!!

Aaron loves his jumparoo. He has even learned to swing it instead of just jumping up and down.

Aaron has many deep conversations with the bear on his jumparoo.

My little man is 6 months old. I have no idea where the time has gone. It feels like just last week when we brought him home. Aaron has brought a love into our life that can not be expressed with words.

He is a very happy baby that loves to smile and is starting to be less stingy with his giggles. If you smile at him he will almost always smile back, even strangers. If you aren't watching him sometimes he will look at you, smiling, until you look at him and then give you a wider smile. He loves his Sophie the Giraffe, this stuffed monkey and when tired he likes to rub a blanket on his cheek to fall asleep. His favorite past times are standing and, of course, chewing on his fingers. We are hoping for a tooth soon.

At his 6 month appointment he got his shots and took them like a champ, only crying after the second one. He is 17 lbs (50th percentile), 26 3/4 in. long (75th percentile) and his head was 18 in. (95th percentile). He gained 2 1/2 lbs, 2 1/4 in. in length and 1 in. in his head since his 4 month appointment. The Doctor was very happy. We have also been very fortunate and he has not been sick one day in 6 months. We have a very healthy baby and are looking forward to all the new things to come in the next few months.
