7 Month Pro Pictures

Here are some of Holden's professional pictures taken 1 day before his 7th month birthday. He did really well and now is featured in big poster prints on every blank wall we had.

All good things must come to an end

Happy to be jumping outside

Even happier to be outside jumping with a dirty face. He despises getting his face cleaned.

He's a big fan of the sippy cup and loves to gulp down water. We're still working on self service.

More swing time




Holden has taken off with jumping. He can also spin himself around to play with all of the activities and keep himself entertained for quite a while. Many dinners have been made and loads of laundry done thanks to the jumperoo.

Thanks Easter Bunny!

Holden got a basket of puffs, juice, a sippy cup, sunblock, and a ball from the Easter Bunny. He also got a basket from Grammy & Ernie with some PJ's, a bunny that sings and dances, a play phone, 2 outfits, and some Baby Mum-Mums (rice crackers) which he loves. It was Easter, Rob's bday, and Masters Sunday all rolled into one fun day.The Easter/Bday goods

Lots of Laughs

Finally a video to post! 6 months is definitely agreeing with Holden. The fussing has calmed down and he's laughing all the time now. One of the belly laugh triggers is the dogs. Sometimes all they have to do is walk by and he'll crack up. He especially loves when they play with Rob and he's fascinated when they eat. We are being proactive and installing a gate to keep them separated just to be on the safe side - I've heard too many scary stories. And as much as I wouldn't mind if our dogs decided to move in with another family, I must say it's pretty cute to watch Holden discover them...from a safe distance.
He's got a golf outfit. Now he just needs clubs and a few years of age.

We went to Philadelphia last weekend for cousin Jack's baptism and a visit with Great Grandma Cerra.
