Shopping Cart

You and Mom like to take trips to Target. Today when you went, Mom put you in the front of the cart. It was fun for you to be able to see everything from where you sat.

Watermelon

Today Ayrika gave you some watermelon to suck on while you were at Grandma and Grandpa Hales house. You LOVED the watermelon.

6 Month Appointment

Solids

Dr. Later said you needed to start eating solids at 6 months. Today you had squash and corn mix. You ate about half of the container and loved it.

Ward party

Tonight you went to the ward party with Mom and Dad. It was a beautiful day outside. Dad was a little worried about you getting burned so we brought your hat. Mom plopped you down on your blanket and soon you had friends sitting and playing with you.

Camden Avery - Who was jealous of your sitting skills, and Mom was jealous of his rolling skills. He is 2 months older than you.

Calvin Radmall came to play too. Both boys loved your toys and kept taking them from you. Since you like to share, you didn't seem to mind.

Andrea and Brent came at the end of the party and Andrea was holding this rabbit. Dad let you pet it for the first time.

There was a tire swing that ended up being perfect for you. You weren't too thrilled at the beginning, but liked it after a few minutes.

New Toy

Mom bought you this walker toy a month ago. She quickly put it together and realized that you wouldn't be using it for a long time. Now that you are sitting up so well, we pulled the toy out again. You loved pushing the buttons, hearing the noises, and looking at the flashing lights.
