Christmas Season

Thanksgiving came and went and before I knew it Christmas was here. Kael is busy crawling everywhere and getting into everything. He has learned how to crawl up the steps-but we don't trust him to do it by himself. At Thanksgiving we discovered he loves pumpkin pie and mashed potatoes. He is such a happy baby, we are truely blessed and spoiled with such a great baby. His first Christmas will definately be a memorable one, mommy had to work and the blizzard kept us away from seeing family. I will have to post some pictures of all of our snow. Can't believe that he is 8 months already. Where does the time go?

All giggles
Eating my crackers

Can't wait to get into the bath tub, it's my favorite time

Christmas gifts from Great Aunt Carol

Such a little angel when he sleeps

Favorite place to be, under the table playing with cords.

Merry Christmas

Gorgeous blue eyes.

Look at my fat belly after Thanksgiving weekend-can't eat another bite.

Tub time

Such a cheeser.

Getting into daddy's things.

On the go.

October-November

Kael has been so busy lately. He is working on crawling, gets up on his hands and knees and rocks back and forth. Very cute. He hasn't met any fruits or vegetables that he doesn't like so far. In fact he loves fresh peeled bananas-ate half on mommy's one day. At his 6mo check up he weighed 17lbs, 7oz (50th %), was 24in (75th %) and has a tiny head-25th %. Kael is developing such a personality. He will squeal in delight to get your attention, entertains himself and even cracks himself up. He rolls all over the floor to get to where he would like to be-he is constantly on the go. It won't be long and his chubby thighs will be worn off. He brings us so much joy, I have no idea what we did before we had him to entertain us. I love my fishbowl!

So worn out.

Mommy's favorite kind of laundry.
