6 Months

My little baby is 6 months old! I can't believe it! He is just so much fun these days. His personality is really starting to show. He is the happiest baby. Just laughs all the time and has yet to meet a stanger.

Friday we went to see the doctor for a check up and shots. Poor little guy was not happy with me. But he is definitely a healthy baby. Weighing in at 18 pounds 7.6 ounces and 26.75 inches. Yikes! Now I know why my back hurts...I have been carrying an 18 pounder around all day.

The doctor told us to start feeding Jake "real" food. So Brian and I went to Target and loaded up on the baby food. I was checking prices and turned around and found Brian grabbing two of everything. I think we are more excited about the solids than Jake. Saturday afternoon we started with the rice cereal and every 3-4 days he will get a new food. There are some pictures of Brian feeding him. He kept crying in between bites because Brian couldn't shovel it in fast enough to suit Jake. But he got full and seems to be taking to the spoon well. Can't wait for the next food on Tuesday! Green beans...yummy!

We also had Jake's picture taken on Saturday. He was a little fussy that morning so we were worried it would be a waste of time but we ended up with lots of cute shots. I uploaded them so you can see the shots, they are in a separate album so you guys have double the pictures to see this week.

This week we are back in the water for swimming and have lots of lunch dates planned. It's going to be a busy week! But the real highlight is that Auburn football season opens this weekend! Our flag is flying and we are looking forward to a winning season! Jake's first football season. Have a great week and WAR EAGLE!!!
