8 1/2 Months already....time sure does fly by!!

Wow, I can't believe its been almost two months since my last post. It seems like there just isn't enough time in the day anymore. So much has happened in the last two months! Hunter is growing like a weed. Just last month he was doing the army man crawl and now he is crawling SO fast all over the house. He is pulling himself up and walking along the furniture. He tries to walk but so far has not been successful.....he is on the other hand fearless, throwing his body in the direction he wants to go. Its a little scary! He also starting saying Da-Da and now says it for EVERYTHING! :) He does alot of talking throughout the day but the only thing we get out of it is Da-Da.
I started back at work last month which has been great. I decided not to go back to my old job but instead went another direction and am loving it. The first week of work was really hard. I cried every day all day but as the week ended I started to adapt. Now I am loving my job and I know Hunter is safe and happy. Luckily for us, his Papa Dennis decided to stay home and watch him for a year. It has been such a blessing to our family!

Here are some pictures from the last two months, as you can see Hunter keeps up on our toes!

Bath time has changed. Hunter now plays in the bath like a big boy!

He hasn't quite gotten the idea that he has to stay sitting

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!!!
