Big Boy!

Yesterday I took out Broc's infant carseat and installed our new Graco Forever carseat. It's an all in one with rear facing all the way through a booster. I installed it and we gave it a test run last night. I put Broc in it and took a picture before I could adjust it to his height so don't judge the first picture below. I put him in it to adjust the height before we left and he was ecstatic!! He was so proud to be in his new rear facing seat! He can see into his mirror better and he can see out the window a little better. He was all smiles!

A big thank you is due for his Grandma Emily and Grandpa! They bought us this carseat and we are so grateful. It will last us a long long time!

6 months!!!

Stats:
Weight: 18 lbs, 1 oz
Height: 28 inches

Milestones:
-July 11th he started getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth. He's going to crawl soon!
-He started blowing raspberries with his tongue. Sometimes if you do it to him, he will do it back.
-He loves to "plank" and do downward dog type positions. It's pretty hilarious and cute
-He is SO full of such a fun personality. He loves drives, walks, standing on the porch in the sunshine, and playing inside with mommy and daddy.

This month little bear's personality came out even more. He's so mischievious and precious. He laughs often and makes us smile. He's ticklish under his armpits and on/ around his tummy. His little thighs are also ticklish. He cracks up when you pinch them.
He loves animals and dinosaurs and playing with mommy's wallet. He loves to grocery shop and is very interested in what's being put in the cart. He will often hold out a hand when you take something off the shelf to put in the cart because he wants to hold/ investigate it.
He loves Grandma Emily, doggies, his flower potato masher, soft blankets, pillows, carrots, bananas, kisses, and the tv show "Oobi". We don't watch it often, but if mama has to go to the bathroom and he's acting up, I put it on for him until I'm done.
He doesn't like loud sounds, and is terrified of those hand dryers in public bathrooms, as well as toilets.
So far he's tried prunes, rice cereal (which is something we will stop and continue when he's older), avocado, carrots, corn, bananas, red potatoes, brown potatoes, and green beans. This week we're trying butternut squash! The following week will be apples.
He recognizes his little baby spoons and knows that that means it's time to eat something. He gets very excited and happy about it and even smacks his lips in anticipation!

Here are some pictures from our month!

While in his bumbo one day, he figured out how to pull the laundry basket close enough to pull all the clean folded laundry out. Silly naughty baby!

Taking a break from being naughty to play with his little quiet book. He loves that thing! Thanks great gramma!

His 6 month picture! I can't believe my little one is half a year old already. Time has gone by so stinking fast. He's so big and happy. I love him. In this picture I tried something different. Not sure if you can tell, but he's sitting up in the picture! :)

Lovin on my little bear.

Family snuggle time! <3

The newborn to six month comparison is amazing. I love my little guy!

My little grocery shopping buddy!

Now one of my all time favorite pictures of little buddy and daddy. We went to the temple as a family for the first time and walked the grounds
