6 month check up

Skyler had his 6 month check up today and he is doing very well. He's growing like a champ and he's so talented that he can do things at the 8 month old level. He had lots of fun playing with the exam table paper again. And one funny thing he did was growl at the nurse after she gave him his first shot. He cried after the second shot but was easy to calm down.
Here's his current stats:
Height: 27inches - (75%)
Weight: 17 lbs 10 oz - (50%)
Head Circumference: 43.5

Our Weekend...Snoqualmie Falls & Skyler's 1st trip to the park

I was lucky enough to have the whole weekend off so we decided to do some fun things that we've been wanting to do for a while. We live so close to so many pretty places and yet we never seem to go to any of them. We had made it our goal this summer to change that so Saturday we went to Snoqualmie Falls with Greg and Sarah. Eventhough the weather was overcast it was very pretty there. I was the only one who had ever been there before and I was a kid the last time I was there. It was the same as I remembered it but it was definitely fun to go and see it again.
We also decided to take Skyler to the park for the first time now that he is able to sit on his own. He LOVED it!!! It looks like we'll have many fun park adventures ahead of us.

Just a warning---we've gotten better about taking pictures so there are a lot to look at :) ENJOY

Museum of Glass Date

Last weekend Skyler and I got to go hang out with my friend Melissa who I hadn't seen in a long time. We had a really fun time going to the Museum of Glass in Tacoma. Here's a couple of pictures from our fun day.

Can you tell he's teething? :)



He's so good at posing for the camera now

We loved the bridge over the freeway!!! So many pretty things to see up there






This coyote was a kids drawing that they made into glass

My dirty little boy

Skyler is fascinated with grass. He loves to sit in the grass and pick the grass and stare at the grass. So today I had him playing outside and he dug himself a hole with his feet. I thought it was pretty funny so I had to post some pics



This is Skyler digging with his feet

This is his dirty leg after digging his hole. Needless to say he got a bath after this.
