6 Months Older and Fatter too...

My baby is 6 months old today!! I can't believe how big he is (literally...he was 19 1/2 lbs at his last checkup :) and how many things he can do now! Topher is no longer content to just lie on the floor, he has to be sitting or he's not happy. He also has developed some strong legs and can already stand by himself (for only a couple of seconds :) using the couch for help. He looks more and more like a little boy everyday rather than a baby, except at night when his little mouth is still moving :). I'm grateful for all the time I get to spend with him as he learns to develop and explore his surroundings.


For a while Topher would only go to Scott for small amounts of time. Now he loves his daddy quite a bit and even gets silly about it. When Scott comes home from school everyday Topher stares at him and it takes a lot of effort for me to get him to stop. It's kind of disconcerting to see Toph's blue eyes staring :). Scott loves the attention from his baby and has even been teaching Toph how to use a Mac:



It has been a stressful, chaotic, sleepless, wonderful, and incredible 6 months!!! I love my beautiful baby boy (and if you want to see more pics you can go to my blog :) and I can't imagine life without him!!
