1st Baby Food Feeding for Grey!

1st attempt at feeding baby food was Green Beans...

And I am not sure how it went over...

I will let you decide...;)

Since then, we have tried carrots as well. He is not a fan of either, but he also wasn't a fan of rice cereal either. I pretty much have to force the spoon in his mouth.

Happy 6 Months to Grey!

My precious baby boy is 6 months old today! Although, these have not been the easiest past 6 months, I already miss the "baby baby" stage. I do call Grey my "high- maintenance" baby, but he is SO PRECIOUS and SWEET! Here are some things Grey is up to these days...
-Sits up, but still topples over sometimes
-Rolls over from back to front and front to back
-Absolutely loves his big brother
-Jumps in the jumper
-Doesn't really like his rice cereal, and often just flat out refuses to eat it
-Nurses or takes a bottle 5 times a day
-Takes 3 naps a day, often only 45 minutes though (he has a loud big brother:)
-Sleeps from about 8- 5, 6, or 7 AM (he likes to surprise us when he wakes up:)
-Loves to be held
-Weighs about 15 or 16 lbs. (He has his 6 month check-up Thursday, so we will get a more accurate weight then.)



"Hey, brother, where is your food?"

2nd Birthday Pictures!

For Colby's 2nd birthday, we went to the Downtown Aquarium! It was a blast! He loved looking at all the fish, tigers, and snakes. We picked the perfect day because we had the place to ourselves and got to ride the train and carousel several times without even waiting in line! Here our some pics of our adventure...

The boys in the stroller ready for the Aquarium!


Here is our group, minus Aunt Ree (the photographer)


Grey enjoyed his day;)

The Birthday BOY!

He loved the Carousel ride!

My buddy!

More train!

He started to run a fever on his actual birthday, so I kept him home from school on Thursday. We had a quiet birthday, with Chick-fil-a for lunch, and then Nana and Papa came over for dinner that night.

"Tractors move dirt!" As Colby says

Singing "Happy Birthday!" Colby can sing the song now!

I'm TWO!

Happy 2nd Birthday to Colby!

I can't believe our precious, energetic, HILARIOUS baby boy is 2 today! We love you so much and could not imagine our lives without you. I REMEMBER the first time I held you in my arms...

And the first time daddy kissed you...

And bringing you home for the first time...

And when you were 1 month old...

Then 3 months...

And the first time you tried Cereal...

Then 6 months...

And how you started to crawl...

And the funny faces you would make...

And when you were Baptized...

And when you turned 1...

And when you started to walk...

And when you became a big brother...

And when you went to your first day of Preschool...


And how you have become such a good big brother and best friend...

And how you make the CHEESE face... I hope you never lose that!

We LOVE you with all our hearts! YOU are such a joy!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Colby!
