Brian is 6 months old


Brian is officially a half of a year old! I can't believe it. Time flies when you become a parent. So many people have told me that and they are right! Brian is at such a fun age! He is rolling now and just about sitting up on his own. He is a little piggy when he eats (as you can probably tell by his chubbiness. =) He was lucky to spend his 6 month birthday with his good pal Korbin. Colt and Sandy were down from Grand Junction so we all decided to have a slumber party at Brian and Kathie's house. It was a lot of fun and I have to confess something. We were trying to figure out where the babies were going to sleep cause neither Sandy or I wanted to be in the same room with them......it's too hard to sleep that way. Anyway, we ran out of bedrooms so Brian got to sleep in the closet. Yes, the closet. I sound like such a bad mom I know but its a big closet! I promise. Kathie and Brian have a huge walk-in closet so Brian slept in there. It worked out great. Just a fun little story for you. Enjoy the pictures.
Brian and Lily are starting to be best friends. Lily doesn't mind him as long as she initiates the contact. Otherwise she is running the other way!

Brian's First Haircut!!

Anyone who sees Brian on a regular basis knows how out of control his hair always is. We think it adds to his sweet charm but it's was getting to the point where it was really getting in the way and even hanging in his eyes! So we decided to take him for his first hair cut. I have included the before and after picture as well as the in between pictures (so you guys can experience what we did while we trying to get this little guy to cooperate.) He actually did really well and had fun sitting in the chair shaped like a car......at least until she started cutting. Then he wasn't having any more of that!! It was so much fun to be there for his first haircut. I will remember it forever!


Before
Just Before

OK, she's starting to cut!

Can you tell by the blurred picture that he isn't liking it much!


Still not liking it much!


Just about done.


DONE! He looks somewhat traumatized but I think he's gonna make it.

What a handsome little boy!

Brian Rolled!!!

Brian rolled from his back to his tummy for the first time today. We actually didn't see the first roll. He was at daycare so Stacey got to see it for the first time but once we got him home, we wanted to see for ourselves. Sure enough, he's rolling all the time. This is a really huge milestone for him because his physical therapist told us that he may not roll as quickly as other babies cause of his Torticollis. We are so proud of him. I think I almost cried when I saw him do it. Here is a video.
