Lots of Updates!

A lot has been going on with Allan. I tell people that his 7th month has been his busiest month yet. He’s mastered sitting up on his own. He’s gotten his two bottom front teeth. One is half way in and the other one isn’t far behind the first one. He hasn’t been fussy once when it comes to his teeth. He’s had his first viral infection. I didn’t even know that he was sick at first. He wasn’t fussing and he didn’t have a cough or runny nose. I picked him up from a nap and noticed he felt hot so I took his temperature and it read 102.9. We went to see the doctor and they took some blood because he had no other symptoms. The blood came back telling us he had a viral infection. Nothing but Tylenol was what we were told. The fevers stopped after a few days and he’s been fine ever since. Another major milestone for Allan’s 7th month is that he’s trying to crawl. He does this worm wiggle thing and can get moving that way. Full on crawling won’t be far behind now. Kirk and I need to start baby proofing the house for sure now!

Memorial Day

Here's a few pictures of Allan (that his aunt Aimee took) on Memorial Day out at the pool at his Mimi and Papa's house.

Thanks Uncle Kevin!

Here's Allan sporting some outfits that his Uncle Kevin in California bought him. He's finally fitting other sizes and not just 0-3 months anymore!!!

7 Months

Sorry I've been a little behind on updates with Allan. He's doing well and growing big! He has his first tooth that's almost completely in all the way. He hasn't fussed once about it. This boy has a high pain tolerance. Here's some pictures his Mimi and Papa took right when he turned 7 months. Yup, my little man is already 7 months old!

We're Finally Home!

We're home and things are slowly getting back to normal. Allan had fun spending the week at his Mimi and Papa's. He got to go swimming for the first time. It took him a good 30 minutes to start having fun. He was not too happy at first, but then the float became real yummy for him...

Away For The Week

Allan and I will be out of town in Kemah for the week. We're staying at my parents' house and taking care of their dogs while they are in Alaska on a cruise. So hold tight because there will be new pictures next week!

Take Care!

Mother's Day

Mother's day came early for me! We got a new car -- Toyota 4Runner. It's so nice compared to our old cars. Allan and I love it. As you can see, Allan finds it very comfy...

Sittin' Up

Allan sat up for his longest time so far this weekend. Mimi was there to see him! He sat up for a good 60 seconds before gravity got the best of him. Here he is sitting and in the last picture he was about to fall over. The pediatrician says he'll be sitting up within the next couple of weeks!!


By they way, we have a new pediatrician and we love her. She has a lot of things in common with me when it comes to breast feeding, which makes things a lot nicer. So far Allan is steadying gaining weight without the tube and doing great. He's eating like a PIG! Every time Kirk and I eat he has to have LOT of bites of what we're having. So far his food allergies are not bad so he gets to try tons of things!

He Loves Them!

Allan loves his Aunt Aimee and Cousin Ry!

Going to the Park

Aimee and Ryan came to stay with us for a couple of days last week. It was fun! We took the boys to the park. As usual, Allan slept through his first park visit. Ryan, on the other hand, had a blast! I can't wait until it gets warmer and we can take the boys to the SplashPad!

Allan loves his cousin Ryan. He can't take his eyes off of him!
