Preston - 7 Months

Here are some 7 month pictures of Preston. He's growing too fast! Well, I thought he was close to crawling at 6 months but still hasn't happened yet. He gets a little closer each day so I'm sure it will be very soon. He loves to sit up and play and he talks constantly :) We are also enjoying trying new baby foods!

Cardinals Training Camp 2009

Cardinals Training Camp was insane this year! There were so many people!! Over 12K showed up for the autograph session and practice. We made it just in time for the autograph Shelby, I mean Preston wanted! They had a limited amount of time the players were doing autographs and we made it with 15 seconds to spare! I was trying to get a photo of Adrian Wilson signing our football and accidentally hit the record button. Which worked out even better!

We tried to then go watch the practice but couldn't get near the field. Well at least our team has fans now which should make this season even better! Look for many blog updates on the Cardinals as football season is finally here!!

Rocking Horses & Shopping Carts

Now that Preston is sitting up so well we can try fun new things. Like rocking horses and shopping carts! He also sits up and plays for long periods of time. I thought crawling was right around the corner but I'm not so sure now. He's seemed to take more of an interest in sitting up than crawling. If he is lying on the floor, he tries to pull himself into a sitting position. He can get about half way up but isn't quite strong enough to pull himself all the way. I'm not so worried about the crawling....it's more time before I have to baby proof the house!

The new foods are going well. So far he's had bananas & squash. He hated the bananas at first but now he tolerates them. He loved squash from the first bite!

Shopping at Fry's

We got this rocking horse at a yard sale

Thanks Adam & Grandma Lynn for picking this one up!

As you can see in some of the photos, Preston is now "posing" for the camera - he's already figured it out!

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!
