Daniel's first visit to the dentist

Daniel has his first visit to the dentist on Monday. He did so great and he was very cooperative. He did not cry or throw any fits at all. I feel bad that he did not get to go into one of the cool rooms for the little kids. They were very busy and we got there a little late because we got a little lost trying to find it. So he ended up going into one of the rooms for the pre-teens/ teenagers. He chose cherry flavored gloves and he loved playing with the suction hose. He has 10 teeth on top and 10 teeth on bottom. We got to see his x-rays and he was very proud that those were pictures of his teeth. He did so well that the hygeniest let him pick 3 toys. She said most kids just pick two. She could of just been saying that to make us feel better. Daniel has no cavities and the dentist said his teeth look great. We forgot the camera so I will have to download some pictures off of Eric's phone later.

Noah is a busy body

Well Noah is so active. How many times have I said that. This week he started to spin on his tummy and he is beginning to roll over at night. He will stay on his tummy a lot longer and he is starting to push off with his feet a lot. He loves watching Daniel play and he wants to join in. He is sitting up for longer periods of time (1 - 2 min.) and he is trying really hard to keep his balance. He has been going to The Little Gym and he is the only baby so the teacher gives him all her attention. We all work to make him stronger and happier each week.
The whole family is doing great and Eric and I are getting excited about our trip to California in July. We are driving to Sacramento for a cousin's wedding and then we are going to stop in Anaheim, CA to go to Disneyland and Knott's Berry farm on the way back. We are going with my parents and my sister and her husband. Everyone is excited and we can not wait to see Daniel's face when we go to the two parks.

Noah loves Daniel






Noah is officially 6 months. We took him to his 6 month visit and he is 27.5 in. long and 18.5 lbs. He is a little above 50 percentile for his weight and length.

About a week ago, Noah started to try to get out of some of his toys. He twists and kicks and jumps and grabs onto bars to try to get out. He is still very active and he has started to try to refuse naps. Just this afternoon he kicked and grunted for about an hour to take a 20 minute nap.
Daniel loves playing with Eric and climbing and jumping all over him. Noah watches in excited anticipation. He smiles everytime Daniel talks to him and he kicks and screams to be included in the commotion.

Here are some pictures of my boys chilling in front of the TV and playing.
