Weekend Snaps

First Day of Daycare

Hunter had his first day at daycare yesterday. According to his daycare provider, he did great. Smiled at all the other kids and was very curious :) It was nice to have a few hours to run errands without having to get him in and out of the car (sometimes I skip errands because I just don't want to deal with it). He is scheduled to go three full days next week, so I am hoping to tackle a few projects around the house and cash in on my massage and facial!

Valentine's Day 2014

My little valentine, Hunter, and I spent the afternoon at the car dealership because my battery died (how romantic!). Tonight my original valentine, Robert, is cooking us dinner and tomorrow we have reservations out.
Happy 9th Vday, Robert! I love you and look forward to many, many more.

Remember last year?

Party Boy

Hunter attended his first birthday party this past weekend in SF (Happy Birthday, Bennett!). He was looking rather mature wearing a button up shirt and sneakers. He tasted BBQ sauce for the first time (thanks to Robert) and got his first balloon! Was a fun time with lots of babies and lots of delicious pizza.
I totally forgot to get a picture of him and the birthday boy together, unfortunately :(

Cousin Date

The cousins caught up with each other over Pavel's treats last Friday. Hunter stared at the crumbs on the plates looking confused. One day you can have some, big boy!

Six Months!

Happy half birthday to Hunter! 
I can't believe he is already six months old. A lot has changed this month: he has two bottom teeth, sits, does push-ups, rolls both ways, eats solids twice a day, cracks up at Cooper (and funny faces), sleeps on his stomach, easily distracted when eating, and is now showing signs of wanting to crawl! This past month has by far been the most fun!
Likes: rolling, eating "real" food, Cooper, exersaucer, standing, chewing on everything, drooling 
(everywhere), pulling my hair, and sleeping on his stomach.
Dislikes: being tired or hungry <-- he is not very difficult to please :)
Length: 27.25 inches, 80th percentile (he was 25 inches at his four month appointment)
Weight: 17.25lbs 50th percentile (he was 15lbs at his four month appointment)
I am surprised at his weight, since I thought he would be heavier. Those round cheeks are deceiving! We got the green light on introducing everything except honey, so that should make meals more fun! I am hoping eventually I can take whatever we eat for dinner and blend it in the vitamix for him. That way his meals are more tasty and nutrient. 

Waiting for his shots

Flashback to his one month update photo - tiny bird legs. If you look at the sticker size in comparison to his head size, you can see how much his head has grown over the months.

Crawling Soon?

Someone has been pretty wiggly the last few days - looks like he is wanting to crawl in the near future and we are not ready! I have no idea how to baby proof a house, so it looks like I will be doing some research this week :)
