It looks like the last post deleted all my blog and left the pictures... I'll have to update farther back than I thought :)
We have been introdcuing Dawson to a new food each week. He has loved green beans, carrots, peas, and especially the squash. He has also started to eat breakfast and isn't that big of a fan of the bananas or pears. I think they may be too sweet for him still. He can sure eat a ton! We just started him on a sippy cup with water and he thinks that is the greatest, although he usually gets more water on him than in his mouth!
Loving his food!

Not liking bananas so much!

He has grown like crazy. We had his 6 month check up last Tuesday and found out he had grown 3 and 3/4 inches in a month! He is now 27 3/4 inches tall and in the 89 percentile. He weighs 17 pounds 8 ouncesand is pretty average at 52 %. He still has a pretty little head coming in at the 19%. He is wearing all his 6 month clothes, although they are still pretty big on him! I cna't beleive how much he has grown and how much he looks like a little boy instead of a baby.
We have got to see a lot of family lately and are looking forward to seeing bryan's mom next week! Uncle Brent came up to visit and stayed a few extra days so Dawson really got to play with him! My nephew came in from Baltimore and we had a big family get together with everyone. It has been a great summer!
Speaking of summer, it is coming to an end much too fast! I go back to work August 31. Although I have realized that I don't make a great stay at home mom, I sure am going to miss Dawson every day. He will be going to back to my friend Renee's this year while I am working. It is the best situation and has really worked out for all of us! Dawson loves going over there and her kids love having someone to play with!
And now for the BIG news! Dawson is officially crawling! The day he turned 6 months old, he took off and hasn't stopped since! He is speedy and knows where he wants to go! Since we have hardwood floors, we ended up getting him the cutest little knee pads to protect his little knees, he loves them! He also has started to pull himself up on things and does te bear crawl! It is really time to baby proof the house! He will be walking before we know it!
