6 months old and Easter!!!!

Yesterday was Barrett's first Easter, and he had a fabulous day!  We went to lunch with Graham's family and then had some of my family over for dinner.  It was wonderful seeing everyone.  Graham's parents stayed in Arkansas for Easter, first one without them....we miss them very much!  We will be there later this month to visit, can't wait!!!!





Barrett has changed so much over the past couple of months.  He is, by far, the most incredible thing in the whole world!! He weighs almost 19 pounds and is 27 inches long.  He is in the 75 percentile! That's my big boy!  He has 2 bottom teeth coming in at the same time....that is a lot of fun for us!  :)  We moved him into his big boy carseat, and have realized we miss the infant carseat.  You can just carry the whole thing with you, set it somewhere and he's good to go.  He can also sleep in it; which is the main thing we miss.  When you're dinning, he use to always fall asleep...nope not anymore! 
We have also changed his eating schedule and what he eats. He is now eating 4 jars of food, some cereal in the mornings, and about 16-20 oz of formula a day.  He went from taking 1 long nap and 3 cat naps a day, to 2 long naps. 
He has figured out when he wants a toy, he just rolls to it.  It is the cutest thing!!  He also thinks he's funny.  He will laugh at himself.....needless to say he keeps Graham and I very entertained!  I love that he's doing all these wonderful new things, but he's growing up too fast.  I'm not ready for my little baby boy to grow up!  Graham says the answer to that is to have another one.....I wanted to start laughing!!
