Real food!



Well, here are a couple pictures from our visit to Green Bay. Ken had a good time hiking in Zion National Park, he said it was very beautiful there. Ken finally finished his bar room he has been working on for the last few months. It turned out pretty good, he constructed the bar himself, he's so handy! We'll have to have a grand opening party soon. Bryson had his 6 month check up this week. He weighed 16.6 lbs and was 26 inches long. He has dropped from the 50th % to the 25th % for height and weight. It looks like he's taking after the petite Vandeleests. The doctor felt this was a good time to introduce solids, so Bryson has been experimenting with rice cereal. The first few times he really didn't know what to do with it (see video) but I think he's getting the hang of it now. I can't really tell if he likes it or not, we're gonna try bananas today, maybe those will taste a little better.

6 months old!

Bryson and I had a wonderful trip to Green Bay this week. My mom flew us and my sister Jess home to surprise dad for his birthday. The flight went very well, Bryson was great! He got to meet his great-grandparents Bob and Ginny Vandeleest. He had a good time playing with his cousins Skye and Vincent and took a bath with grandma in her jacuzzi tub. It's hard to believe he is 6 months old already, he is growing so fast! The weather has been pretty crazy here, we had snow and hail yesterday. I still haven't gotten my garden started yet! Ken took a vacation this week to Zion national park, he'll be home on Thursday. He took my camera so I don't have the pictures from my trip home yet. But I have some new videos on dropshots.

Peek-a-Boo

Well, Bryson just keeps on growing, he's getting more hair and has beautiful blue eyes! He's had just figured out how to work his tongue, he has been sticking it out when he gets excited. He likes to play peek-a-boo and his favorite toy is his ladybug book (it makes a fun crinkle noise-thanks Mia!). We've been working on getting him to nap on his own(he likes to be rocked to sleep) and sleeping in his crib (it's time to get him out of our bed!).
