First Half-Birthday!

Happy 6 months to Ross today!!! Every day with this little one is such a joy. Our time with him is just flying by, so I'm already trying to prepare myself for the day he introduces us to his future bride and leaves our nest! But for now, we enjoy the six month mark and would like to use this opportunity to share some fun things regarding Ross:

Ross' 6 month stats

~Ross weighs in at a hearty 18 pounds now

~He is wearing size 3 diapers at night (Happy Heinys during the day!)

~Ross can now sit up on his own

~His feet and legs are barely fitting into his 6-9 month jammies

~He has 2 teeth

Ross Talk

We're pretty sure Ross still doesn't know what he's saying when it sounds like real words...so we don't count any of these as his first words--it's just fun to hear them.

~mmmmmmmmmMMMMOOOOMMMMMMM!

~and the other day on the changing table, he looked deep into my eyes with foot in hand and said, "God." That's it. Just "God." :)
