Lovin' the new view!

I turned 6 months old on Wednesday! I went to see Dr. Emm and he said I look good! I am 17lbs 3oz and 26 1/3inches long! Both of which are in the 50th percentile. Glad to know I am finally average! And what's even more awesome is that I can now sit on my own! Mommy and Daddy worked with me Wednesday night for a couple of hours and now I am sitting like a pro! Webbles wobble BUT they don't fall down! I love the new view! It is quite a workout though and when I'm tired you will know it. I think I could be the easiest baby when it comes to falling asleep! I LOVE to SLEEP! I think that makes Mommy and Daddy pretty happy. Speaking of sleep.... I think it's time for a nap! Have a good weekend!

SN: Mommy will post some pictures of me sitting really soon! (Or so she says...)

Do you know what color Lapis is? Didn't think so!

I know it has been a long time since my last post... But what can I do if my mommy is a slacker... I'm just a baby you know! Anyway, life is quite exciting these days! I'm learning so much and am really enjoying this weather! Mommy let me lay around in a onesie this afternoon and it felt great! (It gives me easy access to my toes when I'm not so restricted by clothing).
I am really getting the hang of this hand-eye coordination thing. I like to grab Mommy's hair when she gets close and then pull her in for a kiss! She sometimes complains that it hurts.... But that's her fault for getting within my reach.... Besides I know she really loves it! ;)
Yesterday, mommy and I went with Nana, Aunt Erica, Jamie, Taysia, and Allison to pick out bridesmaid dresses in Peoria. They found them pretty quickly and they all looked beautiful in Lapis! (If you don't know what color that is then I guess you are NOT smarter than a 5 month old!.... Okay, I guess I will be 6 months on Wednesday, but still... that's pretty bad!).
Today, me and the folks went to grandma and grandpa Hinshaws for lunch! It was fun and Grandma had some cool toys for me to play with! Aunt Kati and Grandpa were cracking me up!
So Mommy was slacking, once again, with getting pictures printed of me for my photo albums, so today she picked up her order of 976 pictures!! There are sooooo many and she said I will probably have a photo album full for each month of my first year! That is 12 photo albums!.... Anyone else think that's a little over kill! Well, I guess I know how much I am loved! :)
This weekend was fun, but I am now in bed getting rested up for my week of chaos! Just kidding.... I enjoy all of the excitement! I hope the weather is nice so I can go to the park again and swing! I just love to swing! Mommy and Daddy took my to Miller Park yesterday and I had soooo much fun swinging! They took pictures, so I will have Mommy post those tomorrow! I also got to see the ducks.... Mommy forgot the bread, so she said next time we can feed them!
Have a great week and I will post wednesday after my 6 month check up to let you know all the wonderful things the doc has to say about me!

SN: There are new pictures on Mommy's Facebook if you haven't seen them yet!
