Roxy and Hunter are best buddies. He is always opening his mouth to kiss her (which I try my best to block) and everytime I turn around she is laying right next to him. Its so cute!


Good Morning Mom!





Well Hunter is now 7 months old and 21.10 lbs. As you can see, he is so much fun these days I can not even begin to explain. He has eaten just about every different baby food on the market and has no allergies which is awesome. He is also crawling all over the house like a little snake. He gets from one room to another so easily now but still only has his stomach off the ground for short periods, he mostly drags his body everywhere. Its really funny! He went on his first plane ride last week and was so good. The turbulence was pretty bad and my ears were popping like crazy but he hung in there like a champ, not one tear out of him. We went to Portland for 4 days to visit my sisters and had a great time. I thought it might be hard with him out of his routine and in a strange place but he was amazing. The first night we got in late but the other 3 nights he still went to bed at 7:30 and woke up at 7am like always. He even took his naps, I actually would go in the room to lay with him until he fell asleep and I always fell asleep as well. I was really tired!!! :)
This week he suddenly got extra attached to me for some reason. He wants me to hold him all the time and if I am doing something or someone is holding him he always has one eye on me to make sure I don't leave the room. I guess its just a stage that will pass eventually. He is really teething also so I think he is extra sensitive. He has 3 teeth now and they are adorable little things!

Happy Valentines Day

Billy, Hunter and I spent our Valentines day at the beach in San Francisco. We had not yet taken Hunter to our favorite dog beach so we were excited to take him. It was a beautiful day!


On our way...
Roxy was excited, Fort Funston is her favorite place! :)


Hunter, not as excited as Roxy.......

Here we are















After our day at the beach we came home and Billy made us an amazing four course dinner! He is absolutely incredible!
Happy Valentines Day!

New Bath Chair for Hunter!!

Bath time was getting harder and harder because Hunter was definitely outgrowing his lay down bath. Every time we would put him in it he would sit up and try to flop himself into the water. Needless to say this was not very safe; so we started bathing him sitting in the sink but it was hard because he liked to fling himself back...... again....not safe! :) So we decided to get him a little gift yesterday.... a new bath! He loves sitting up and fishing for all his toys!! Much safer and easy on the back, its a win win!







Love him!!!

6 Months already

Hunter had his 6 month Dr appt on Friday. He now weighs 20.12 lbs and is 29". The Dr said he is in the 100 percentile. We told her that he is still waking up every 2-3 hours, (this started suddenly at 4 months) but other than that he is perfect and so much fun! She suggested that we feed him alot more baby food and to start him on stage 2 & 3 foods. We had him on stage one twice a day but due to his size she suggested that he may not be eating enough during the day to keep him sleeping all night. So now we are feeding him solids 3 times a day as well as his bottles to see if it helps. So far, he loves eating more but still wakes up! :)

3rd post in one evening :)












Tomorrow we have Hunters 6 month check up so I will post his weight and height then but as you can tell by looking at him he is growing like a weed! He is just an absolute in our lives. Everyday he is doing something new.
This week he is sitting up, rolling around everywhere, grabbing everything in sight and he loves to eat. He has tasted all of the first foods and loves everyone one of them. Now that we know he doesn't have any allergies we are able to mix it up a little. He usually gets some oatmeal and fruit in the morning and some vegtables at night. We only feed him solids twice a day because our doctor wants formula to remain his primary source of nutrition but if it were up to him he would eat everything in sight. Its gotten to the point where I feel bad eating in front of him because he stops what he's doing, stares at us and grabs for our food.

He hasn't started crawling yet but he sure tries hard. I am so excited for the first time he crawls but I can honestly say we are just enjoying exactly where he is right now.
