6 months!


I can't believe Reid is 6 months old. It seems like we've had him forever, but then again, I remember being in the hospital perfectly. He is getting so big. He's so tall and skinny, just like his daddy. At his 4 month checkup, they said he was the length of a 7 month old but was very skinny for his age. I'm anxious to hear how he measures up at this month's appointment. I love how he reaches for us now and gets so excited to see us after being away from us for a few hours. He is sitting up slowly, but falling over a lot. He loves watching Baby Einstein - World Animals is his favorite. He is so happy in the morning, and it's hard to be mad even when he wakes me up at 5:30 because he's smiling so big. I can't wait to watch him grow even more in the next 6 months. We are in love with him!

Mr. Reid

Life sure has changed since our new family addition. Wowee, I knew it was going to be tough, but I don't think anyone can prepare you for such a life changing thing. Our lives revolve around Reid, and I can't believe that the world is letting us take care of him. That's scary! We are more and more in love with him everyday and are so thankful that he is here...but can't wait until he can sleep through the night!

He is smiling and laughing now, which makes life more enjoyable. He is growing so fast and getting so chubby. I was worried that he wasn't getting enough to eat.. what a joke. His cheeks and double chin prove otherwise.

The only thing I wish we could change is living closer to home. I feel like he is definitely getting jipped by only getting held by me or Kyle. He misses his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. So do we. :)
