Week 27 &28

6 month update

Grayson is 19.5 lbs and 29 inches. He is in the 81st percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height. He was in the mid 80s percentile for head circumference. Still a long and lean-ish baby. :) He really is growing up so fast. He loves to eat food or his bottle and is very curious about the world. He is just a happy boy and brings smiles to our faces everyday.

Yummy

Here are some fun pictures of G eating. People ask how he gets so messy and why don't we just use a bib. As you can see...a bib would not really help. Naked is best for now. He tries to grab the spoon or has his hands in his mouth with food in it and then starts to rub his face and body....not fun.....

Fun in the Sun

Here are some pictures from our adventures in the sun. We have been loving our sunny strolls and have reconnected with friends. This little boy lives across the street and is 2 years old and 4 months. He is going to be such a good buddy for G. He is very smart and speaks very well. I also met another girl walking to the library (it is less than 3/4 miles away) and she also has a 6 month old boy named Benjamin. I did not take a picture with her but it was nice meeting another person in the area. I still try to walk with my friend Gini, but she is due very soon and has been very busy with her little 19 month old and getting ready for the new boy! The little boy pictured besides G is the boy from across the street. G always sleeps on our walks...hehe it is too cute.

 

Haircut

Some of you may think it is a little early to cut G's hair....but......he needed it...desperately. Most of his wispy dark newborn hair has fallen out, but two rat tails behind his ears lingered. We decided to cut it. My friend, Kate did it. I was too nervous. He cut the little rat tails a little from a part that was sticking straight up in the back of his head and a long strand at his forehead. He looks like a new boy now! So handsome and even lol!

Bath Fun

Grayson has discovered his feet and loves to chomp on them, suck on them, play with them, etc. Bath time is no exception!

Something smells Fishy

Our neighbor, Leiloni caught the biggest fish on our neighbor's fishing trip. It was twice the size of Grayson! It was funny that G happened to be up still when they got home! We just had to do a side by side. I also included the fish Doug caught but did not keep! What a woman Leiloni is! Hehe! 

Selfies

Selfies are pictures that people take care of themselves. Here are a few of G. He just loves to take them!

Grayson dressed like his daddy. Our friends from Texas the Langsjoens, both doctors now in Temple doing their residency, sent G this cute scrub outfit! It finally fits so we had a mini photoshoot! <3

Matt update

Matt says, "Va Wards...same story...different day". He will be doing this for another 2 weeks. He then has clinic and has a little retreat at the beach for a day. He will be done with intern year June 25th. Wow! Can you believe it? One year down...2 to go until he is a board certified physician....then maybe a chief year...then 3 more years for hematology/oncology. WE look at things in chunks so...yay..2 more years! lol
