6 Months Old

Pictures speak a thousand words... Austin is as adorable as ever in his 6 month pictures and we thank God every day for bringing him into our lives.

Two boys and their ponies...

Grandma G broungt her ponies to our house today for Austin & Owen to ride. Austin had a baby one and Owen had a big one that talked and sang a song... the boys loved them and had a great time together. After Owen left, Austin kept trying to touch the big pony, I think he's looking forward to being a big boy so he can ride that one some day!

Growing up...

I can't beleive how fast Austin is growing up. His personality these days is so fun and he's learning new things every day. He's been a drooling monster lately and we're anxiously awaiting these two stubborn bottom teeth to pop through. He has been dealing with it pretty well and only once in a while can we tell their bothering him. Until then, he's content with chewing everything in sight and drooling all over the place :)

Happy Boy

Austin is such a happy boy!!! Some of the most fun we have is at the dinner table, he is very happy when he eats and then sits and plays in his high chair while Travis & I have our supper. I think supper will be a great family time for us for a many years.

Austin has really started to broaden his horizons when it comes to food, he was a rice & pears guy for about 5 weeks, but now he likes rice, oatmeal, pears, peaches, sweet potatoes, peas, bananas, apple sauce, carrots and... ICE CREAM! OK, so he normally eats the good stuff, but the other day I gave him a little spoon of my ice cream and he LOVED IT! :)

Like father like son...

Travis's parents have told me for a long time about when Travis was a baby how he slept with his little butt in the air... well.... like father like son :) By the way, this picture was taken at 2:30 AM ... no, Austin cannot yet figure out what sleeping through the night is and has to have a snack part way through. It's OK though, he is so good and eats and goes right back to sleep.

More Tummy Time

Sorry folks, but tummy time is all the rave these days. Austin is all over the place now as he knows he can roll from place to place and is also scooting himself all around the living room. Oh, and he likes moving and rolling all places, not just the floor... his crib, his changing table, the bath tub... anywhere :)

P.S... check out his blue eyes! I think they get more and more blue every day! Hooray! Something from mom! :)
