5 months old!

We've had a lot going on recently. Erik continues to work harder and harder at school and Denver continues to grow and amaze us every day with his fun personality and sweet spirit. I decided to quit my job a couple of weeks ago and I'm ready to see what it's like to be a full time stay at home mom. I love my baby and I'm so excited to get to spend time with him during the week and time with my whole family over the weekend. 

Me and my buddy.

Denver's Halloween shirt.

My big big boy on the swing set! He was ready for his nap so he's a little grumpy looking, but I think he liked it. 

First trip in the grocery cart at Costco! He looked like such a big boy and loved looking around.

Cute fall outfit I got him with his awesome nautical afghan his Aunt Jessame made him. I love the ears on the hood. 

We got him a high chair recently and I love it because he can look around and watch me while I do dishes or cook. We have also started feeding him baby cereal so it's nice to have somewhere to put him to eat!

Hi mom!

He loves those feet.

We went for a walk up to the store one night and he fell asleep on me. I loved it! it was so cuddly and I haven't held him like this in months! 

Some seriously awesome snuggles after that.

On a walk with Daddy. This is how he wanted to lay and eventually fell asleep in his Dad's arms.

Frankenstein jammies I got him for Halloween. 

Happy boy in his stroller.

I put him in front of Winnie the Pooh one day and he loved it!

The best Opera singer in Corvallis!

Baby snuggles! I seriously don't get these that often but he slept on me and we snuggled for a long time a few days ago.

Sitting up all alone playing with toys.

Working on scooting.

 Playing with his friend in the mirror.

This little man turned 5 months old! Again, tons of pictures because I couldn't pick a favorite!

At 5 months old I love laughing and playing. My Dad's beard makes me laugh so much and I love riding on his shoulders. I started eating cereal that makes me gag at first, but then I gobble it down and wonder where I can get more! I love exploring my world and like going on walks and looking around at everything. One of my favorite games is going to the store and feeling the different textures of everything mom can find especially the sheepskins at Costco. I have such curious little eyes. I give mom and dad huge smiles when they come and get me in the mornings. I don't like being in the backseat of the car by myself and will cry or squeal until someone comes and frees me from my prison! I love kisses and cuddles and tickles and hugs. I'm getting so big!

Playing on Dad's shoulders is the best!

Also I love soda cans!
