Doesn't he look good in Orange.

Cody is finally sitting up like a big boy!! I can actually get him to play with his toys and not arch back while throwing a fit because he isn't being held. Yes, my child is VERY spoiled, but we are working on that. He is so much fun to play with, I just can't get enough of him.

Cody went to his 6 month well baby check, and I have to say I am surprised at what the scale had to say. He is 19 lbs, with is a little less than 2 lbs difference from his 4 month appt. Also, he is 27.5 inches, which is only a 1 inch difference. By the ache in my back, I could have sworn that thier scale was broken, it has to be more than that.

Cody also got a hair cut about a week ago. I love his spikes.

He is becoming such a little stud.

Favorite Toy of the Day

This is a pound puppy that was mine when I was little. My parents got one for my sister for her birthday, and I just had to have one too. It was the only thing that my little 2 year old heart desired. Knowning that I would want one too, my parents bought this one for my birthday and hid it in the top of thier closet until that day came. I was not going to have any of that though. I would whine and pout and cry and say "I want my pound puppy!!!" My mom would patiently tell me that I didn't have a pound puppy yet because it wasn't my birthday.... but I knew better than that. I would stand in her room and point at the top of her closet crying and say that I knew it was up there, and that I wanted it right now. My mom tried to reason with me and tell me that if I got my pound puppy now, then I wouldn't be getting anything for my birthday. Apparently I did not care about birthday, there was nothing more important than having my pound puppy right now!!! Sure enough, my mom gave in and when my birthday came and I didn't get any toys, I didn't care because by dang, I had my pound puppy.

I am glad that this has been Cody's favorite toy of the day. He has been carrying it around and giving it kisses non stop. It is fun to see that the toys you played with when you were younger are still cool.

Transformation!!

I can't believe how much my baby has changed!! It is so amazing how much difference 6 months makes in a little persons life!! I have loved every stage of Cody's developement. I loved bringing home my sweet little cuddly newborn, and now I love my into everything, giggly, sleep through the night 6 month old.

Happy Six Months Baby Boy!!

I can't believe that Cody is already 6 months old. It has gone by so fast. Life has changed so much in the last six months its like a whirl wind. I have a new job, Russ is still in Thoracic (by the way he is horrible at keeping me updated on whats going on there :). I have been so busy and I just try to spend every moment that I am not at work with Cody and Russ. Cody continues to bring so much joy and happiness to our lives. He is growing like crazy and is finally rolling and lifting himself up. Cody is also being a great helper with this blog post. Russ is amazing at taking care of him 3 days a week, they have so much fun together. We are all so blessed and just lovin life.

This is Cody's snake. He loves it and plays with it all the time.

Cody reaches for everything. We are going to be baby proofing before we know it.

Not quite crawling material yet, for which we are grateful.
