Mommy's First Mate

Ok, so the title is corny, but he wore a shirt today with that saying and it's pretty much true because we are practically attached at the hip . . . and I don't mind at all! We snuggle, we play, I carry him around when we are in and out with the big boys, and he crawls around following me when I'm not holding him :) He's been so lovey the last few days and it has made me putty in his hands!!! Love my baby boy!

He's just a couple days shy of 7 Months old and he had juice for the first time.

(When I say "juice" I mean two drops of juice in a cup of water, hmm yummy)

He wasn't so sure about it at first, but he ended up really liking it.

Look at that big boy drinking from his cup, if only I you could hear the sucking and slurping that went along with this picture. The entire cup was gone in no time!

There he is, my first mate

Blake & Bryce were outside playing and he took his position near the front door to watch

This was a few days ago, but had to include it because for one he looks so big and two so I could tell you that he is trying so hard to "walk". I put it in quotation marks because it means he turns and looks at another piece of furniture, thinks he can just go on over there, lets go and falls on his face. He has no fear!

He has also started mimicking everything. Blake & Bryce think it's hilarious when he copies them, especially when they cough because he sticks out his tongue and makes a pathetic cough sound . . . almost as if he is making fun of them!
