More 6 Month Photos

Well, at halfway to a year these photos capture some of Tate's favorite things which include taking a bath (and giggling afterwards in his towel) and playing in his exersaucer. I think the fact that he's standing up in it makes him feel proud and independent! I could share about a million photos with you that I've taken but I decided to narrow it down to four of my favorites.

6 Months

Wow, it is truly unbelievable that this little boy is halfway to being a year old! He has brought so much joy to our lives and continues to amaze us each day with all the new things he's doing and sounds he's making. What a gift from God! I will post more photos soon of our latest endeavor into veggies. I know you're on the edge of your seat...

Rice & Rolling

Well, the last couple of weeks have brought about two new firsts: the wonderful world of rice cereal and rolling over! He's still not entirely sure what he thinks of rice cereal because on some days he eats it and on others he literally pushes away the spoon but some is getting in nonetheless. I have a feeling he might enjoy the liquid veggies more that are up next on the menu! His other discovery is rolling over although as you'll see in the photo he likes to "cheat" by rolling almost all the way over but keeping his head to the side. When he does successfully roll all the way over and lays flat on his tummy he instantly becomes enraged that somehow he put himself in tummy time! We're hoping this is just a phase unless he wants to cut out crawling all together and go straight to walking....I'd be okay with that.





5 Months

Oops...a little behind on this posting but Tate was 5 months old on February 15th. Once again he reunites with his dear pal Harvey and pretty soon they'll be together again for the 6th month photo. I can't believe he's almost halfway to a year!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

"Hmm...what do we have here? I'm alone and have this big box of chocolates all to myself?"
"Well, in that case they're all mine! Wait....was that someone at the door? They'll never get my chocolates!"
"I just can't stand it anymore, this is too tempting....I have to dive in!"
Well, the adults in the household decided to celebrate Valentine's Day early and have a nice romantic meal at home. Move over Wolfgang Puck because I prepared a pretty tasty spread if I do say so myself. The menu? Bacon wrapped pork tenderloin, potato and rosemary flat bread and toasted pecan, feta & artichoke salad with a hint of parsley.


Cup. Cake. Need I say more...

Life Lately

Daddy surprised us by taking a quick shot after doing some "flying" in the air with momma!
Tate loves his Mr. Sassy that he got from Susu for Christmas...plus, he likes being independent sitting unassisted in his bebe pod. No hands!
A typical Saturday morning waffle breakfast in pj's...

Tate was not quite sure what to think of his first hat wearing experience but something tells me that won't last long.

Photo Opps

We took a few photos of T before our morning walk to go get coffee last Saturday because we couldn't pass up how cute he was in his cap and pjs. I seriously cannot get enough of this little boy sometimes!



Well, one day Tate is definitely not going to allow a photo shoot with his momma anymore so I'm taking all the chances I can get! Plus, who could pass up taking photos outside on another sunny 75 degree day in January? Not me.
