I just love this picture

He seems so grown up...

Testing

So I found out that Microsoft Word allows you to do blog posts from their program. I thought I'd give it a try. If you're reading this post, then it works.

6 Months Already

So our little Andrew is growing up. Yesterday he turned 6 months old! I can't believe it. I feel like time has gone by so fast and yet, I feel like he's always been here with us. He is very social and likes to look at people more than things. I also think he's very observant and smart. I love our little boy so much I can't even put it in words. All you mommies and daddies know what I'm talking about.

So here's to you our little Pumpkin Doodle. Happy 6 months!

Andrew can sit up with a little help. This was yesterday morning.

He's starting to suck on his bottom lip, which results in a smile like this:

So for Andrew's birthday I though we'd do all the stuff he loves. Like playing in his exersaucer.

This is one of my favorite outfits. (Thanks Sis and Lauren). I thought I'd put it on him before he was too big. He likes to suck on anything - including his stinky socks.

As a birthday treat, Andrew had squash for the first time. Yummy!

Of course Andrew's perfect day wouldn't be complete with out the Jumpa Jumpa. Our friends are letting us borrow this one, and as you can see...the poor little guys is all tuckered out again :)

So he took a nap
And then he jumped some more

Rub a dub dub! It's bath time!

After bath time with Mommy.

And that was our day! Thanks for being a part of Andrew's 6 month birthday!

As a special treat, here are some more photos of the last few weeks. Enjoy!

He loves these silk flowers

Andrew likes it when Daddy reads to him.

Andrew fell asleep in the exersasucer and Mommy put him to bed.

Andrew loves it when Daddy comes home from work because then they get to play!

Andrew has been getting much better at tummy time.

Thanks for joining us.

Mirror Mirror...

My family jokes about how much I enjoyed looking in the mirror when I was young. I guess Andrew has followed in my footsteps. I put him in his Bumbo chair while I get ready in the mornings. This was our master bathroom and he loved the double mirrors because he could see himself multiple times. (This was taken at our old place). He likes to play with the other baby in the mirror. He's so cute...

Haha, that's funny. The other baby sneezed too!

We've Moved!

Yes we've moved again. Another family in the ward (our church) was moving into another house and is selling their other home. We're paying rent now, but still saving a lot more than if we were renting somewhere else. Plus we're still saving up for a home of our own sometime. The house is bigger and really nice. Click here to see pictures on a website.

We're still in the same situation as before. We have showing and open houses and have to be ready to leave the house perfect at a minutes notice. This still stresses me out, but I guess it's worth it. I'll let you know when I'm sure :)

Our new address is listed on the listing above where the pictures are. Let me know if you can't get it.

Nothing new with me or Ryan really. We're reading this awesome book, The Hunger Games and we're both loving it. I highly recommend (so far).

Some new stuff with Andrew. He's eating rice cereal now. We have video and photos of that coming soon. It's getting too hot to wrap him when he sleeps, so he's taking a nap without being wrapped. By now he's usually asleep, but I can hear him talking to himself. I checked on him and he was playing with his pacifer. I thought it would be funny to video and call it short term memory because he had it with both hands and would suck on it for a few minutes, take it out, look at it (oh ya, I was sucking on my pacifier) and then stick it back in his mouth. This happend over and over.

Oh, well just got a call for a showing in half an hour. Better go. I'll update more later!
