6 months....

half a year.
it happened so quickly.
it feels as if my head is spinning because of how fast time is zipping by.


you are six months old.
and our days have never been brighter.
your smile completely lights up the room.
causing our hearts to overflow.

you are talking more now.
and laughing.
good gracious, the laughing.
it makes me come unglued.

you have quite the menu.
sweet peas, green beans, sweet potatoes, bananas, squash, zucchini, apples, nectarines, peaches, pears, carrots.
and the occasional taste of ice cream or frosting.
you eat three meals a day, along with 4-5 nine ounce bottles.
you are still wearing a size 3 diaper.
and size 9-12 month clothes.

you do not like for your feet to be covered.
you kick off your socks or shoes as quick as i can put them on.
you are sitting up and rolling over.
these are the best days with your bubbly personality.
you love stroller rides and your big baby car seat.
you spend your time staring up at the sky and babbling.
you love bath time in your new whale tub.
you splash with such delight.

you seem to be a morning person.
and your witching hour is still between five and six in the evening.

we are over-the-moon, crazy about you.
you bring us so much joy and happiness.
and we love watching you grow and learn.

happy half-year birthday, griggs michael!
you are loved beyond compare....
