Michael's Turtle Impression

29 weeks

It is hard to believe that Michael is already almost 7 months old! He's getting to be a very independent boy. He can pull up on anything he wants and is very active. He is getting more brave every day, so we often have spills because he lets go and forgets that he still can't stand on his own :-)

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks.

Outside laughing at Callie and crazy Uncle Chris

He is trying to figure out how he can "catch" Callie

Swinging at Grammy and Papaw's. This is Michael's favorite evening activity (and morning and afternoon if we let him)

Here are some of our many adventures over the past couple of weeks:

He is crawling under the kitchen chairs and trying to stand up, but he gets mad because he can't get back out on his own.

We have moved beyond baby toys. He now likes to play with toys he can pull up to and stand behind. Michael is still a little scared of the toys to walk behind though.

Aunt Kelly and Caroline are at the beach, so Uncle Chris was at Grammy and Papaw's for dinner last night. He was helfpul and gave Michael the spoon I was using to make his blueberries. This is also why Michael has blueberries all over his face and shirt in his 29 week pictures. Somehow, none of it got on Chris though.........

27 weeks

Michael is starting to get more and more adventurous. His newest trick is pulling up on everything, and today he has started to let go while he is standing! Here is how we find him in his crib these days -


He can also sit up very well now. He likes to sit up and play with his toys.

6 months!

It is hard to believe that six months ago I was sitting in a hospital room waiting to have a c-section and feeling like a cow. But, Michael turned six months old today. He continues to amaze us with how much he learns each day. He is crawling all over the house, terrorizing the dog, starting to pull up on the furniture and eating like a pig! Here are a few pictures in his Masters shirt his daddy bought for Easter.
