Carter {6 months}

I'm a little behind on blogging.  (In case you've been checking!)  Last week the boys and I spent the week in Kansas.  And while we were there Carter turned 6 months old! 

It was a rainy week, but we still managed to sneak in a quick photo shoot with the lovely Andrea!  She does a great job and we love her!  You should check her out if you're in the Wichita/Newton area!  Here's a a few of my favorite shots she snapped!  Thanks Andrea! ;o)

I snapped a few of my own too.  Not quite the professional shots, but we can't all be pros, right!?  Otherwise they wouldn't have a job! ;o)

At 6 months Carter:

-weighs 12 lbs. 13 oz and is 23" long

-wears size 3 month clothes (and an occasional NB sleeper!)

-rolls over (when no one is looking!)

-just started eating some cereal

-still waking up once at night (and not always at the same time!)

-can scoot across the room on his back (it's quite amusing to watch!)

-starting to find his big brother somewhat entertaining

-has a big gummy-cheesy smile that we love!

                                                                   -still has blue eyes!

-loves to put everything into his mouth

-takes 2 or 3 naps a day

-lets us know when he is DONE with something (quite emphatically, I might add!)

It's so fun to see his personality come to life!  Riley can get him laughing pretty good sometimes if he's in the right mood!  It's so fun to hear them 'playing' together from the other room.  Riley always calls him Brother.  Rarely does the name Carter come out of Riley's mouth.  And, Riley always wants Brother to look at him!  Which usually means, "turn him around Mom so I can see Brother's eyes." Pretty sweet the bond you can see developing between the two!  I hope it gets stronger and stronger as the years go by!
