Shadowing

RJ has become quite fascinated with his shadow.

1. Watch shadow.

2. Wave at shadow.

3. Attack!

4. Hmm...it's still there. Wave at shadow.

5. Try to attack from the side.

6. Wave at shadow.

Watermelon!!!!!

RJ doing the watermelon crawl. Looks like an opportunity to teach him a new song.

We are a little excited about our watermelon!

The biggest watermelon on the vine.

Oops...picked too early (and cut off Bob's head in the picture). We might have to make some sweet white wine. (ok, you haven't googled the song yet???)

The little one was red and sweet!

One of Doug's friends made this shirt for RJ

Someone is a little too comfortable in our backyard.

Since RJ tortured me by getting up at 5:30, I tortured him by making him eat peas. Amusing myself by having a "green" day...green bib, green washcloth, green spoon, green bowl, green food...

Green face!

Seven Months Old!

RJ is seven months old today! He is crawling everywhere and manages to find the one thing in the room he can't have (newspaper, electric cords, remote, phone). He loves playing with his toys and getting our attention. He talks/squeals and lets us know when he is not happy about something. He is eating a few different foods now and loves avocado. When he wakes up he sits up in his crib and tries to pull himself up to stand. One night he pushed off from Doug's legs and stood by himself for a second before crashing to the floor. We have multiple head injuries daily, but usually only result in tears when he's tired.

The problem with being 7 months old, is that RJ can't sit still for a picture, so here's a few...

RJ's "home from the hospital" outfit finally fits!

The BEST $34 we have EVER spent. This tool is cool!
