the big 0-6!

Our little man is a-growin'! Today is his 6 month birthday (don't you just love the t-shirt?). So, here's a mini-update our Sam:

• He is still so very smiley.
• He is able to roll over (at least in one direction), but is usually content to simply look at the ceiling.
• We're still working on sitting up. Spitting up, on the other hand, we've got down pat.
• He has just begun to get fussy when we take away a toy. This has presented some interesting challenges with Kate.
• We've got this little dragon that sings "Row, row, row your boat," and Sam adores it.
• He's eating sweet potatoes, apple sauce, squash and pears. No mashed potatoes just yet, despite Nana's sneaky attempts (love you, mom).
• He and Kate are becoming more and more affectionate with one another...it's a really awesome thing to see and something I'll need to remember 13 years from now.
• He's an okay napper...not stellar, but not terrible either.
• He loves for me to whisper in his ear, kiss on his sweet little neck, and blow raspberries on his belly.

I'm sure there's more, he's a growing boy, after all, and he seems to change every day. His personality is emerging more and more, and he's a doll.

Happy Half-Birthday, baby boy!
