PROGRESS REPORT #2

Dear DD,

Here's another month-by-month comparison for you! I have my 6-month pediatrician visit tomorrow.  Mommy can't wait to find out what my doctor has to say!  Mommy thinks I'm perfect!

Love,

Landry

 

 

6 Months

Dear DD,

Happy 4th of July!  Today was my half-birthday!  I'm 6 months old!  Mommy says I have the cutest dimples in my cheeks and chin.  I decided to show them off for you today!  I didn't feel like sitting up tall today, so you can't tell, but I'm a lot taller than my lamb now!  I wanted to play with my toes today.

And then I wanted to do push-ups so I can get strong muscles!

Then Jovie came to see me.  But I was talking too loud and she wanted to leave, so Daddy had to hold her in the chair by me for this picture!  I love my kitty and my puppy.  They are soft.

Mommy told me to tell you that I'm rolling over from front to back and back to front.  I'm pushing up and locking my elbows and getting close to crawling.  I'm babbling dadadadada, mumumumum, bababababa, ggggg.  I reach for things I want, drink out of a sippy cup, and love trying new foods.  I can sit up with help, and can almost do it by myself.  I love standing (with help), and I like to play stand up/sit down!  I'm sleeping through the night (usually about 12 hours!), and I take 2-3 good naps a day.  

DD, I hope you had a good day today.  We just stayed home because we are packing to go on a vacation.  We went to my grandma and grandpa's house tonight for dinner.  Grammy came too, and so did my Uncle Blake, Aunt Renae, and 2 of my cousins:  Ashley and Chelsea.  It was pretty fun, but I got sleepy.  I didn't even stay awake for fireworks!  I did get to eat some watermelon mixed with my oatmeal, though.  I like the taste of watermelon!  Have a good weekend, DD!

Love,

Landry

Am I Crawling Yet?

Dear DD,

I have been trying so hard to crawl!  Some of my friends in the nursery can crawl, and I have been watching carefully to figure out how it's done.  So far, I can do this:

 

I can almost get my knees up under me.

 But then I get really tired.

Let's see...Maybe I need to move my arms more?

 Am I crawling yet?

 This is hard work!

Hey!  How YOU doin'?

 I guess I'll just have to practice looking cute for now.  Crawling will come another day!

Daddy & Me

Dear DD,

I wanted to show you a picture of me with my daddy on Father's Day.  We wore matching ties to church, and we attracted a lot of attention!  Mommy thought you might like to see me all dressed up!

And here's one of the whole family.  I was looking at the birds in the trees.

 

Daddy and Mommy helped in my Sunday School class at church.  It was fun to have them in the nursery with me!

After church we went to the grocery store.  I was worn out.  I think Daddy might have been too!
