6 Months

Happy half-birthday to Wesley! He is 6 months old today, I can't believe it! He also got his first cold, poor kid has quite the stuffy nose. We got colds at the same time and now Scott has it. But Wesley is a trooper, only mildly discomforted it seems. He is taking to daycare well, as am I...it helps to be distracted by work. So here's some cute pics of our growing boy:

Sitting on the couch in his adorable Old Navy outfit.
In his rolling rampages he tends to come across obstacles...
Almost sitting up on his own!
I love how his ears have started to stick out! And you can see his teeth pretty good in this pic.
This is no obstacle, he purposely rolls under the coffee table to play with the bars..then he hits his head on them when he keeps rolling!

Last Week of Freedom.

So today we had planned on making it a lazy Sunday but instead we decided to go to the awesome furniture store in Sumner (The Old Cannery) and buy an entryway table we've been waiting like a year to get! Afterward, we drove down to Orting and walked a bit on the foothills trail. It was pretty smoggy so you couldn't see Mt. Rainier too well but I got a few good pics along the way:






And, of course, random Wesley photos of him being incredibly cute!

Here he is trying to suck on his foot, he can actually get both of them in there at the same time!

He's discovered looking at things upside down, so he is always squirming around to see what's behind him.
Standing up and exploring the coffee table, don't worry mommy has a hand on him!
I had left the room for a minute and came back to this, not sure why he did this but it didn't seem to bug him.
Having fun with daddy, using him as a trampline!
Chillin outside and enjoying the cool evening.
Wesley has one more week at home before mommy goes back to work. I have work on Monday and Tuesday next week then some time to get my classrooms ready before our first official day back on the 2nd. We found a good daycare and I'm excited to get back to work, but it really sucks to have to put Wesley in daycare all day!

It's Been Awhile...

So, I haven't posted any pictures in quite awhile, I've got so many great pics from the last few weeks! Visiting the family was great, it's always nice to see them and to see our cute little nephew grow up. We also got Wesley a new toy, it's a seat that helps him learn to sit plus it has toys all around it, he went nuts over it! Wesley can now also roll all over the place, he seemed to have forgotten how to roll from his tummy to his back for awhile but now he's rolling both ways and we have to keep putting him back in the middle of the blanket. So, enjoy the pics!

This is our nephew checking out Wesley:

He's looking up at Grandma, freaking adorable in his overalls:
Passed out on our bed, he looks so small!
His new toy, he loves that bee thing:
Just so cute!

Cutie Pie

Wesley is being a little trooper!  Both his front bottom teething are coming in, and boy they seem to be coming in fast!  He's been playing with them constantly, using his tongue to feel them and in the process pushing out much more slober.  He's also taken to biting his lower lip...Scott has some funny pictures taken of biting his own lower lip, something his friends love to tease him about.  So when Wesley started doing it, of course everyone thought "like father, like son!"  So I had to get some pictures.  Scott won't let me post a pic of him so the one of Wesley will have to do.




And I just love this picture, he fell asleep hugging one of those blanket rattles after he had been playing with it like crazy.



This weekend we are going to go visit my family in Ephrata, so hopefully we will have some good pictures to post and hopefully it won't be too hot!

Exciting!

So Wesley was chewing on my finger...and much to my surprise something felt a little strange...I finally got a good look:



It's a bit hard to see, but that is the very tip of a tooth! If you click on the picture I think you can see it better when it's bigger.

4th of July

Wesley had his 4th of July, only there weren't any fireworks. Apparently they are illegal in Lacey. We had a lovely bbq at Scott's parents house with some friends and had much fun playing the Wii. Wesley is doing pretty well with his cereal and will be starting a new kind soon. He loves sitting up and being held which means mommy doesn't get much done during the day. Though I love hanging out with him it means hardly any cleaning or laundry gets done, but I guess a dirty house is worth it :).

Hanging out with our friend Brion, or "Uncle Rock Star" as he likes to be called:

Rolling over, he does it so quickly!

Sitting with mommy, he's just too cute!
