Found It

Timothy recently found his tongue and wanted to show it off to everyone. He also had his 6 month doctor's appointment yesterday. Those pictures, however, are on a different camera so that post will have to wait. Apologies to those of you who I already texted this picture to. I hate to be redundant with the texts and blog posts but some of the photos are too cute not to share with everyone. Yes, yes -- I know I am extremely biased!

Best Work Day Ever

I had the best day at work the other day because Timothy and Mark came for a visit. It was a very short visit but it made my day nonetheless. He was, of course, a hit -- everyone loved him and he generously gave out lots of smiles!



Looks like he fits in...no?


A few kisses for my baby.


Wish he could brighten my day at work everyday!

Lost in the Woods

Where has the time gone?

Time sure flies when you're having fun.

Happy Half-Year

6 things about Timothy at 6 months (totally stealing this from other bloggers)

1. Very happy baby -- always quick to smile! Has pretty much been like this from the beginning.
2. Loves looking in the mirror -- and who wouldn't if you had that cute little face looking back at ya!
3. Definitely NOT sleeping through the night. Has improved over the last 3 weeks so now only wakes up twice. Likes to sleep on his side or belly, child's pose as well with his little tushie in the air!
4. Pretty good at sitting up. Can go several minutes by himself but just to be safe we like to have a boppy behind him or some type of supervision.
5. Working on rolling over. Currently only goes from back to belly. At night he sometimes gets stuck on his belly and scoots around his crib so he's out of view of the monitor.
6. Has 2 teeth and lots of hair. Two bottom teeth came in days after his 4 month birthday. We are resisting cutting his hair --- it seems to be part of his personality and always makes for several good photos.

Dress Like a Cowboy Day

Timothy has had dress like a cowboy day twice at school. And I must say that Mark and I have been very proud of ourselves for actually having something for him to wear. To be honest, Mark is the one who remembered these cowboy outfits so he should get the props. Check out Timmy as a "cowboy."


First dress like a cowboy day -- Serious cowboy.


Second dress like a cowboy day (his shirt says "little cowboy") - Happy cowboy

Like Mother Like Son

Looks like we might have another gymnast in the family.

Fun at Crump Park

Sorry for the delayed posts, as Sarah said we have been swmaped at work. About a month ago Maddie came for a visit and we all headed to Crump Park for some fun and exercise. We got to check out all sorts of farm animals, including sheep, hogs, horses, moo cows, chickens and turkeys. Timothy and Maddie really enjoyed the animals. We also got to spend some time playing on the jungle gym.

Sitting Up!

Guess who is adding sitting up to his list o skillz. That's right. Timothy is becoming quite good at sitting up these days. He's been pretty good for the last few weeks and just keeps getting better and better. Watch out world -- here he comes!

This weekend we even put him in the grocery cart sitting up. We meant to give it a try Saturday when we were running errands -- but he slept through all of those errands so we just let him rest. However, Sunday when we went to the store with Aunt Amanda and cousin Maddie we gave it a try. It was a success!


I got this, yo!


Saturday running errands


Sitting in the grocery cart like a big boy!

One of my favorites

Sorry for the lack of posting. It's been a busy week at work for both Mark and I plus we had a lovely weekend of visitors -- friends and family! Anyway - just thought I would share one of my favorites. I love this picture b/c Tim's hair is actually styled well -- it's crazy messy but it actually looks rockerish which is how I wish I could get it everyday. Also Timmy is also looking so content in his daddy's arms! Hope everyone had a good weekend.
