Our little guy turned 6 months old this month, and neither of us can figure out where the time went. Although I know I sound like a broken record every month that goes by saying the same thing about time, it really is true. You don't know how fast time can march on until you have a child.
Kroy is growing stronger and smarter by the day. He has officially started crawling and it has got to be the cutest thing yet! He loves his new found freedom. He is so proud of himself when he can get from one end of the room to the next, or when he can crawl to me or his Daddy when he wants to be picked up or to sit with us. He started crawling the day after he turned 6 months old. He has had a busy month again this month with lots of firsts! He started crawling, started eating 3 "solid" meals a day, flew to Texas again, and started eating Puffs. He also attended his first (of many) branding on May 6th, and rode his first horse that day as well!
Kroy loves eating his baby food. He gets so excited when it is time to eat and can't wait to get in his high chair so we can feed him. Sometimes we let him feed himself, which normally ends up with pictures being taken of him because he is such a mess, and a trip straight to the bathtub! He is an excellent sleeper at night. He normally goes down around 8:30 and doesn't wake up until around 6:00 a.m. where he will take a bottle and go back to sleep until around 7:30. He is also becoming a great napper as well. He used to only take 20 minute cat naps throughout the day but now has started to become more routine in his nap taking. He normally takes about an hour and a half nap in the morning and at least a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.
We flew to Texas at the end of April to attend the funeral of my Grandfather (my Mother's Dad) and stayed in Texas for a week. Kroy didn't do so well on the trip down there but on the way back was an excellent traveler once again. He had lots of fun with his cousin Kannon this time around too. Kannon is walking now so that really motivated Kroy to get moving with his crawling so he could keep up with his cousin! While we were in Texas, Kroy also tried out his first tree swing and loved it. In fact he fell asleep in the swing! A tree swing is definitely on the list of things to get for him and soon!
Kroy is still such a happy baby. He never fusses unless he is tired or hungry. He truly is the light of our lives and we are so proud to be his parents!
I still have to upload his 6 month pictures but will get them uploaded and posted shortly!
