Six months!

It's so hard to believe, but Owen turned six months old this week! I can't believe he is already that old! He is so much fun and always so happy. His brothers can't get enough of him and always want to hold him and play with him. He is rolling everywhere and smiling at everything. He is trying to army crawl, but is still pretty much stuck in one place with his legs tucked under him. He got his first taste of solid food on his six month birthday. It took him a minute, but he LOVES it! Watch out.... you think he's chubby now, just wait! :) He weighed 17 pounds 7 ounces. It was only the 50 percentile and his length was in the 68 percentile. Don't ask me how we got kids with any height at all!! Here are some pics of his first attempt with oatmeal and applesauce!

His first bite...he is a little confused!
Obviously he is not sure how he feels about all of this!
Trying not to puke!

What is this stuff she's feeding me??
He's not mad because he doesn't like it.....I wasn't getting it to him fast enough!

That is more like it!
He is SO excited to be eating!!! I can't believe he is so grown up!

What a cute chubby baby! I've haven't seen your blog in a while, so there's tons to comment on. Baby animal days looks so fun! Too bad we don't live anywhere near...and the ice cream cones...yummo! What a great idea.

My how things have changed. Years ago, we all fed our babies rice cereal at two weeks and fruit at four weeks. But I have to admit that our kids had more food alergies than kids today.

6 months already? Doesn't it seem like the more kids you have, the faster they grow up? I love when they get to eat baby food. Soon he'll be eating everything in his path. I'll pray he won't learn to crawl too fast. 3 kids that are mobile is getting crazy!

Six months already?! Where did the time go! He is getting so big!

Wow, he is getting big! Last time I saw you, you were still pregnant! So you are moving to NE on the 13th? We will actually be leaving Utah to come home that day! How are you moving? Omaha is about 50-60 minutes from Lincoln. It is long, but better than 12 hours! We will HAVE to get together!

What a little cutie! You guys do a good job. Are you getting excited to move? I hate moving, which seems odd because we have moved every year since we have been married. Did you ever meet up with our old roomies, how are they doing?
