6 Months Part 2

So we finally got Wesley's 6 month check up last week and he is just over 17 pounds and just about 26 inches long. They had a new shot, a 3 in one, so he only had to get shot 2 times in stead of 4 so he got over it much quicker. I also had the wonderful pleasure of staying home for 2 days to take care of him as he got pretty sick Monday afternoon. He developed a fever and seemed to just have a pretty bad cold. He's mostly better now, just a runny nose and he's back to playing and trying to get his hands on everything. He's started to creep: pushing with his feet and pulling himself with his arms to move forward. It is so funny to watch but amazing how fast he can move that way! He's also added "D" to his vocabulary so he is saying "dadadada" though it's just gibberish at the moment.

Super happy!

He rolled himself up in the blanket and then started eating it.

Still his favorite place to play.

And the beautiful flowers Scott got me for our anniversary (the 17th). We went out for dinner at the Melting Pot in Tacoma...very tasty fondue :)


And a silly video, enjoy!

The Puyallup

So we went to the Puyallup Fair yesterday. We had a lot of fun and everywhere we went people stopped to tell us how cute Wesley was...I love that! He did great with all the noise, it doesn't seem to bug him at all and he even fell fast asleep. We bought some stuff, saw some animals and caught the hypnotist show (always funny). On a side note, we are having much fun with Wesley rolling around everywhere...he's even been surprising his teachers at daycare with his ability to roll across the room in less than a minute.

I will get camera!
Must grab! He's been grabbing our faces like crazy.
This is the only picture where Wesley looks like his mommy when she was a baby.
The main object of his desire when rolling around the floor...the infamous coffee table!
I will get you!
He got himself stuck on the leg of the coffee table...

Labor Day

So this last weekend my mom and sister came over for a visit. We spent Saturday have fun at the Point Defiance Zoo. Wesley has still be battling his cold, same as me, but he still seemed to have fun and he's finally starting to eat better so maybe the sickness is almost done for him. I also have to mention that I find it absolutely adorable that he can, and usually wants, to put his pacifier in by himself. When I put him in his car seat to got o daycare he does not want his pacifier, he wants to play with his toy. About halfway there he gets quiet and when I look back at him he's fallen asleep and sure enough the pacifier is in his mouth. So cute! Anyways, here are some pictures from our fun-filled end-of-summer blast:
