6 Month Check Up

We took Preston for his 6 month check up today. He weighs 17lbs., 8 oz. and is 27 1/2 in. long! The doctor says he's long and lean! But she says his weight is average and he's very healthy. We get to start solids 3 times a day. Introducing a new fruit/veggie every week. Whoo-hoo! Let the fun begin!

He's getting closer to crawling everyday. The doctor mentioned that was early. She also pointed out that he's very strong and will be very active once he's mobile! He's already very active so I guess we'll be eating our wheaties so we can keep up with him!!

More updates to come!

Another Fun Weekend

We had a great weekend. Papa Ken & Grandma Lynn came to visit. We went swimming, shopping and even made it to a Dbacks game! We enjoyed spending time with them. Then on Sunday we picked up "Uncle" Richard from the airport. He went to South Africa. So we spent time with him and heard all about his adventure! What a fun weekend!

Ready....Set....Play!!

Just a fun day of Mommy & Preston time!! I love spending the days with him!!

Visit with Nicole

We met Nicole for breakfast on Saturday. She is Shelby's friend from High School. She lives in Reno now and was in town for the weekend. It was nice to see her again and she finally got to meet Preston!! We had a nice but quick visit. Needs to be longer next time!

Cranky Pants

My friend Melissa bought Preston this onesie that says "hello my name is cranky pants"! It's too cute. Thank goodness he really doesn't live up to the name!!

An end of week update would be that Preston gets closer to crawling each day. He's up on his knees now and trying to move forward. Just hasn't quite figured it out yet!

I think we are about done with the bumbo as Preston now arches his back to get out of the thing and just about does! Time for the highchair!

Preston - 6 Months

Wow!! Preston is 6 months old already! I can't believe how big he is!! We don't take him for his 6 month checkup until the end of July as his Dr. is on vacation. I'll have to post his checkup status then. He is now rolling all over the place! He is also starting to get up on his knees in preparation for crawling. Won't be long now! He is starting to sit up on his own better and for longer periods. We just love him to pieces and look forward to the new stages!!

Preston loves to roll around in the blanket Grandma Deena made him!

Silly Noises~Preston is making some of the funniest noises! Check it out....you only need to watch the first 25 seconds. I don't know how to edit these!

Weekend w/Aunt Kimmie

Kimmie came to visit us last weekend. We had a great weekend filled with shopping, movies, and of course a Dbacks game! She must be good luck because they actually won!! Thanks for spending the weekend with us!

First Haircut

Preston's hair was out of control!! He had a really long, thick piece on the side of his head that was becoming unmanageable. Shelby liked it and called it his "signature". I decided it was time to cut it. While we were in Globe, Grandma Lynn cut his hair for us! We of course saved the hair for his baby book. He looks like a little boy now! Thanks for the haircut Grandma Lynn!!

Ta-Dah!!

4th of July

Our 4th of July weekend was a blast! We spent the entire weekend in Globe. Chris, Rachel & the kids were in Vegas so they had an empty house and let us stay there. It was very nice of them but they were all missed!!! We were able to catch up with family. We had a nice visit with Grandma Deena & Papiano. Robyn & Adam were married on the 4th of July and they had a 5 yr. anniversary celebration. We had fun spending time with them along with Kimberly, Carrah, Shane & the girls, Grandma Greenwall, Aunt Tina, Aunt Sarah, Willie and of course the wonderful hosts Papa Ken & Grandma Lynn! Thank you all for a wonderful weekend!!
