Water Baby

Nolan finally likes water! Up until recently he only tolerated baths (and sometimes tried to escape from them). Now that he is sitting on his own, I decided to try him in the bathtub instead of his infant tub. It turns out I should've done that a month ago when he started sitting! He must love being able to stretch out, because he loves bathtime now! He plays with his toys and splashes around. It's really cute.

We also bought a little baby pool for Nolan. He also loves this! He splashes and plays with his toys. We have a little fountain toy and he puts his face in it and lets it get his face wet. He also loves watching Keegan run circles in the backyard. Half the time he just sits in the pool and watches Keegan!

Last week I took Nolan to the Splash Pad for the first time. I didn't know how he would like it, because the water is a lot colder than his bath/pool water. He ended up loving it! He sat by a little fountain that shot up about a foot and put his hands and face in it. He also loved watching the kids run around and splash in the fountains.

Here are some pictures of our water baby.

Schooooooooool's Out for Summer!

Today was my first day of summer vacation. I am so excited to be a full time SAHM for the next three months! I can't wait to spend everyday with Nolan.

Last week one of my best friends, Heather, was in town with her two month old, Grayson. We spent all of Friday together hanging out with the boys. They are best friends already!

Nolan now gets up on all fours all on his own and rocks. It's so cute; when you go to get him from his crib in the morning and after naps he is up on all fours, rocking, and grinning. He is so proud of himself! Sometimes he moves backwards, sometimes fowards. No crawling yet, but you can tell he wants to!

I can't believe Nolan is seven months old. He is now closer to being a 1 year old than a newborn! Craziness.

Here are some recent pictures of our little man.

6 Month Pictures!!!

This week has been busy and wonderful! Nolan has met a couple more milestones - he has gotten up on all fours and rocked and he has fed himself some puffs (actually picked them up off his highchair table and put them in his mouth!) He also met and played with his new best friend, Grayson, my friend Heather's son.

For now, I will just post the six month pics, which we love!!!! I'm so excited to have them printed and framed. Next time I'll post pictures of Nolan up on all fours and with his best friend Grayson.
