Well, today at 11:59 pm, Andrew will officially be six months old! I really can't believe it! The time has flown by, and I can safely say that the last six months are basically a blur! But a wonderful blur!
Andrew has done a lot in the past couple of months. He has two bottom teeth, and he handled them coming in very well. He got a cold, and I think that may have been why, but after we got a humidifier, that didn't seem to be much of a problem. He's trying so hard to crawl, and he can definitely get around (sometimes by rolling), but he just can't get it all to work at the same time yet (arms and legs). That's just fine with me! He's making lots of noises, and this may be crazy, but I'm wondering if he tries to say Alli. He's so fascinated and humored by her, and lots of times when she comes around, he makes a noise that sounds like "Aya." Well, I'm not writing it in his book yet, but I just keep listening. It does make sense since we yell her name all the time!! Today, he started sitting up! He's been getting stronger, but we haven't been able to sit unassisted...until today! I still have to watch him, but he can sit there for a few minutes, until he decides to go after something. We got him a walker, and he loves to scoot around the kitchen. And he has had his two first little tumbles. Fortunately, neither phased him! Dan and I are even - one on his watch and one on mine! We are definitely in the process of baby proofing!!
Dan and I are doing well! We've gotten into a pretty good routine in terms of our jobs and family time. We both get tired, and we try not to take that out on each other!! I'd say we do pretty well - he's better than me! We even went on a date without Andrew recently, which was fun! Next week is our fourth anniversary, so we're spending the weekend at Disney. Andrew will stay at least one night with Gigi and Papa (Dan's parents). My mom is a little bit sad about that! We're excited about getting away!
Well, that's my quick update for now! I've been blessed that Andrew has been happily entertaining himself for a few minutes! I better not push it!
