It's My Half Birthday!!

Hello everyone~

Well today I am 6 months old!
Yup, it's my Half Birthday!
Mommy says she can't believe I am 6 months old now.
She keeps saying I'm growing too fast.


Last week I moved up to my own room....she cried.
I had been next to her in the cradle that my Papa made when she was born, but it was getting too small, so I'm now in my big boy crib and loving it.
Besides, my Daddy is coming home this week and I think he would keep me awake. (He's been gone for a long time
on a big ship!)

Mommy found me once in the middle of the night giggling...
I was awake and watching my aquarium in my crib, it's like my own TV I tell ya! It plays music, lights up, bubbles and the fish move....and I know how to turn it on!!
She came up and turned me around...and turned it off.
I went back to sleep. But each morning, when I wake up and she's in the shower, I turn it on and babble away.

I'm rolling all over the place now. Mommy says I need bumpers.
Sometimes I end up half under the couch! and I even take my toys with me. They end up all over the place.

Since I'm 6 months old, she even started feeding me in my highchair! I'm not too sure about this event, but I'm catching on. The food tends to come out easier...out of my mouth that is. I think its something called gravity, but Mommy scoops it back in so that I can grow to be big and strong some day.


I've been eating fruit and cereal for a while but she gave me juice yesterday for the first time and WOWZA! that stuff is good. I can even hold my juice bottle all by myself, if I'm laying down.
Where has she been hiding this???


But, I wanted to let you all celebrate with me. I'm decked out in my Red Sox gear today....the outfit is a 12 month and I'm only 6 months, but it won't fit for too much longer...I'm already growing so big! Must be the bananas! The hat fits just right, aren't I adorable? Go ahead, you can admit it :)


Love to all,
Garrett
