The kids

That time again.....

Time to lower the crib mattress! When I put Nathan down for his nap yesterday, rather than the usual silence, I heard squeals of delight. I peeked in to see Nathan standing up in his crib with a big smile on his face. He was so proud of himself for pulling up. Needless to say he ended up not even taking a nap because all he wanted to do was practice his new skill!

These are the last few pictures of Nathan's sweet, toothless smile. His first tooth has just started popping through!

Spending time with the fam....

Our little "push-up" man

While we already posted the "push-up" pictures we thought we would expand on them a little more...Nathan REALLY likes to do his push-ups!Every time we set him down he turns to his belly and then pushes up (I don't think that I can do as many push ups in a day as he is doing right now). He gets to this position smiles and then drops his knees to crawl position. He will lunge forward gaining him about two inches and then repeats the process.

6 Months old

We're a few days late on Nathan's 6-Month post but we have a pretty good excuse....we've been busy chasing after our busy boy! Yes, that's right.... Nathan is on the move! He hasn't officially started crawling but he is able to maneuver around quite well. As you can see from the pictures, he enjoys doing push-ups. We're getting him in shape at an early age :)

Stats: for his 6 month check up he weighed in at 19 pounds and is 29 inches tall.
