Tyler's 6 Month Pictures





Here are a few of my favorites from Tyler's 6 month pictures... He didn't get a very good nap that day...he actually fell asleep in his stroller while we were waiting for the photographer to finish up with the previous person. I ended up walking around while he napped for about 20 minutes. Needless to say, he wasn't in the best mood but we got a few good ones.
We went to the doctor on Monday for his 6 month check-up. He weighed 17.7 lbs (56%), was 26.2 inches long (43%) and his head circumference was 17.7 inches (81%)!!- maybe he's going to be really smart although big heads do run on the Fannon side. :)

Happy 6 Month Birthday Tyler!

Tyler loves his jump-a-roo!
Bathtime! One of his favorite toys is his bath book...

Getting ready for oatmeal.

Watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with Daddy... He loves the music- especially the "Hot Dog Dance" that is at the end of every episode.

Tyler is 6 months old today... wow, time flies! It seems like it was just yesterday that we brought him home from the hospital. Jeff and I were just saying last night how big he has gotten. He has already gained 11 pounds. We have his 6 month check-up on Monday so we will get the official weight and height then.
He is such a happy baby and is sleeping a lot better. He goes to bed at 8pm and usually gets up around 6am (although he has gotten up earlier and a couple of times a little later than that). We had to get him nighttime diapers because his other ones just weren't cutting it at night. Those have helped a lot. We have only had one wet bed since he started wearing those. He still isn't the best napper but hopefully we will get into more of a routine soon.
He is rolling all over the place and is sitting up pretty well (he will still topple when he's not concentrating on what he's doing). He is doing some scooting but not crawling. I'm not sure if I'm ready for that... Jeff says he's ready and thinks it will be great when he starts crawling & walking. I love this age and just don't want him to grow up too fast!

Such a big boy!

Everywhere we go, everyone always thinks Tyler is older than he is. Usually the guess is between 8-10 months.... he's not even 6 months old! When I tell them how old he is the next response is usually, "Well, he must have been a big baby"... No, he was only 6 lb 11 oz. He now weighs 17.5 pounds! My mom told me today that I weighed that at a year old and I was heavier than him at birth (not by much: 4 ounces... but still!) We are just starting him on solid foods. He has only had rice cereal and oatmeal so far. We think he likes oatmeal a little better. We are going to start him on bananas next week. I can't believe that he will be 6 months old in a week! It goes by so fast! Jeff's parents are coming for Thanksgiving and we are so excited to see them!!

Pool Time!!

It was such a nice day today that we decided to go over to the pool. But, by the time Tyler woke up from his nap it was getting too late so we decided to wait and go next weekend. Instead, we got out the baby pool and headed to the backyard. He had never been in it before and really seemed to like it! I actually bought the pool for the dogs but they won't get in. There is a dog beach/park in Tampa that we used to take them to and they loved going swimming so I thought they would like the pool. I guess I should have remembered that they never wanted to go in our pool in Arizona either. Oh well... Tyler seems to like it! Hopefully the weather will be just as nice next weekend and we can go to the "big" pool.
Keely & Tyler


Even Bella wanted to be part of the fun... :)

We love this weather!!!

Last week was a little cold here but we loved it. I loved getting to bundle him up and cuddle in warm blankets... before now it was too hot. This week it's been 80 degrees and sunny... perfect weather! I think Tyler likes it, too. He has been sleeping a lot better. Last night he slept from 9pm-6:30am! That's the longest stretch of sleep I've had since he was born. It was very nice!!
Before our walk....
After the walk...



Let her out!!!... We had someone doing repairs in the house so the dogs had to go in their crates for a little while. :(
