6 Months Old!!!

Wow! His Half Birthday has already arrived! Where did the time go? My sweet boy is growing like a weed! You blink and he's changed. You blink and he's discovered something new that he can do! I am amazed at how God has created something so perfect, so wonderful and how in such an instant I have fallen in love with this blessing.  Colin Michael, I love you more than I even know how to say!

At 6 months, this is what Colin has discovered/can do:

• Crawls/Scoots
• Hold his own bottle
• Laugh when he is tickled on his belly
• Screams like we are hurting him when getting dressed
• Makes Sounds like "puh" and I'm pretty sure "mama"  :)
• Still gives the sweetest kisses with the meanest hair pulling
• Lately acts like he's 6 weeks rather than 6 months with his night time schedule.  Pray for his Mama!
• Loves his sitter and her son...He walks in the room and Mama no longer exists!
• Has discovered peaches and loves them!
• Sits up so well
• Crawls and then sits up from that position
• Can get to where is he wants to go.
• Favorite toys: His doggie and his book Mimi got him
• Such a tall boy!
• Hair is getting thicker and now is growing over his ears...it drives his daddy crazy.
• Kicks off his shoes within 30 seconds of his mom putting them on.
• Can finally where the baseball caps his mama bought for him before he was even born!

We go to the doctor in a week for more shots ( ughhhh!) and to get weighed and measured.  Baby boy is probably pushing 20 lbs! We'll see!

Day 5: I am thankful for my job! I feel so blessed to have a job and even more blessed to be able to do what I love to do!

Day 6: I am thankful that God knows what is best for me. There have been many times I've prayed for things to happen/not happen and God listened but knew what was in store for me down the road.  So today, I am thankful for God's assurance and all-knowing!
