Brody Thomas - 6 months old!

Brody is now 6 months old!! He is so much fun and the biggest blessing. We can't imagine our lives without him. He is such a good baby and so happy. Here are a few things he is up to:
  • Sits up to play with his toys
  • He can "scoot" backwards and covers a lot of ground - he is getting close to crawling, but can't go forward yet
  • Has a precious giggle when we play with him and a smile that melts our hearts!
  • He is eating multigrain cereal, carrots, squash, and bananas - we are going to start feeding him 3 meals a day tomorrow, and go from 5 to 4 liquid feedings a day. I make his fruit and veggies - I enjoy doing it and it saves money too
  • Weighs about 16 lbs
  • He loves his toys, the excersaucer, being outside, reading books, eating, and his pacifier

    Brody is waiting on Mommy and Me Yoga class to start!

After yoga, we all go eat lunch at Soho square - this is the first time Brody sat in a high chair!



Sleeping baby!



We met Andrea and Cara for coffee and a walk on the Lakeshore trail - it has been beautiful weather here! I miss all the people in Erie, but not the winters!



Cara and Brody



Cara's dog Penny wanted to get Brody's toy Sophie, and she was looking for it!



We started going to story time at the library on Thursdays - we sing songs and read books and see other babies



We took our first trip to the zoo this week. Brody loved it! Here he is with his girlfriends - Abigail, Lilli, and Sophie

Friday we headed to Pensacola Beach to visit our friend - Josh Tuck, from Erie. He was doing a peds ortho rotation there, and it was only 4 hours away. It was great to get to hang out with him for the weekend. The picture above was when we stopped to feed Brody on the way.

They let him try a lemon when we were out to dinner Friday night - he will eat anything!

Hanging out in his pack and play



Brody's first trip to the beach! He liked the sand at first, but after getting his feet in the cold water, he wasn't too happy - it was a beautiful beach, and we had a good time!
