6 Months Old

If I had to choose two words to describe Chase, they would be always smiling!
He is the happiest baby. He turned 6 months old Wednesday! Of course, we had to celebrate his birthday in style. After work, we went to the new bakery here in Hernando and bought some delicious cookies & cream cupcakes. It is now one of our favorite places to go for something sweet!

Chase is changing every day. His hair is getting longer and a little lighter. He still hasn't cut any teeth yet, but he is definitely teething. He is officially a sitter. He's learned to catch himself if he starts to fall, but he still tumbles over from time to time. He loves moving toys from one hand to another. He puts everything in his mouth and loves chewing on fingers. He loves Reed's toys and anything his big brother does. He has a very contagious laugh and grin for that matter. He still likes getting up in the middle of the night to tell us he loves us. The past few weeks have been rough. We hope he starts sleeping through the night again soon.

Chase on his 6 month birthday.


This picture describes Chase perfectly! (It's one of my favorites!)


Chase's birthday cupcakes

He loves Reed's Spider-man.

Standing by himself...

Figuring out how to get closer to those cupcakes...

They look yummy, Mommy!

Our 6 month old

Feeling the cupcake

"Can I touch it again?"

Peeling the paper off the cupcake. Six months old and he already knows what to do.

"Hey, I wanted to lick that icing off!"

Daddy letting him have a small taste of icing.

This picture is a bit fuzzy because he was moving. He was chewing on Reed's old Spider-man toothbrush.

Eating his frog's crown

He loves his frog.

He loves bath time. He's so funny because he has learned to kick and splash water every where. He'll kick really hard, then look up at me waiting for me to cheer for him.


These pictures would have been so cute, but he kept moving, so they are a little fuzzy.

Love him!
