First Sleepover

Parker and I are constantly talking about how much our families do for us. We have incredible parents and siblings that support us in so many ways. WE ARE SO GRATEFUL. After having Allen, even more blessings began to pour into our lives by way of our families. What would we do without all of you?
Well, the other day my sister was over at our house and she graciously offered to sleep in Allen's room so I could get a full night of rest. I'd completely forgotten what that felt like. I woke up feeling like a new person and I'm pretty sure Allen had a fantastic time having his first "sleepover". :)
For those of you wondering, NO, Allen did not sleep on the floor. He slept in his crib with his auntie on the floor next to him (She claims she likes sleeping on the floor. I'm pretty sure she is lying so I don't have to feel so guilty.) This is how I found the 2 of them the next morning--playing and reading stories together :)

6 Months

As you can tell, I've gotten a little behind on my postings. There is a perfectly good explanation for this: I am having way too much fun with this little guy!

He is now 6 months old! (Has anyone figured out how I can stop time?!)

Here are a few updates about Allen:

He is ALMOST sleeping through the night. (He gets up at 5am to eat & then goes back to bed for a few hours.)
He loves playing with Krug and Chinghis--he gets so excited when he sees dogs.
Weighs 17 lbs. and 9 oz.
He can pretty much sit up on his own now, but still needs us to sit behind him, "just in case".
Still loves bath time and being outside.
Thinks his dad is HILARIOUS.
He really likes it when you sing to him.
Got his first cold :(
Has started using his highchair.
Peek-a-boo is his favorite game.
He is getting his first 2 teeth! (More on this later.)
And, I've come to the conclusion that he has the MOST adorable smile and laugh.



I am absolutely loving every single moment with my bug!
