Bryce is 6 months old--how is he a half a year old already?! He weighs 15 pounds even, and is 26 1/4 inches tall. This past month, Bryce has learned how to sit up for a little bit on his own. If he keeps his hands on the floor, he can sit for awhile, but he always lifts his hands up to reach for a toy or sit up taller, then he falls back. But he's getting there! He is also grabbing everything in sight, as you can see in the 2nd picture. He also had his first haircut this past month. He had a few longer streaks of his birth hair that needed to be trimmed, and now you can really see his new, lighter hair coming in on top! Bryce is really getting more playful and expressive, and he wants to be a part of everything. He gets mad now if he sees us leave the room, and he follows everything we do. He just started on solid foods today too, and I knew he's been ready and waiting for it--he watches us closely at every meal as we eat and fusses as if he wants it! He ended up with more of it on his face than in his belly, but he did pretty good for the first try. He has also discovered his feet and gets them in his mouth whenever he can. We can't believe he's been in our lives for 6 months already--he is such a special part of our family, and we can't imagine life without him! We know the 2nd half of his first year will be even more exciting as he becomes mobile, eats real food, starts to talk, etc. I wish I could freeze time a little bit, as I am already forgetting what he was like as a newborn, but getting to know his personality as he gets older is still so much fun!
My sister Susanne's wedding was on April 14, and it was a complete success (except for the rain all day)! She and Corey are an amazing couple and we loved being a part of their day. Doug and I were both in the wedding, and Grant was the ring bearer. Luckily, he walked down the aisle fine with a big smile on his face! He loved riding in the limo bus and running around on the Bengals' field. It was so neat being down there again, since the last time we did that, it was at our own wedding! We don't have too many pics of the wedding yet, since we didn't take too many with our own camera. Congrats Sus and Corey!
In just a few days we will be celebrating Grant's 2nd birthday, so look soon for the post on that. We are just having one celebration after another lately!
