Happy Halloween!!

Matt and I wake up everyday wondering if today is the day for a tooth, no luck yet, but Landon is a drooling, chewing mess!!

Landon has gotten some serious grandma time the past couple of weeks.  We had 6 month pictures and cousin time a couple of weeks ago, last week Grandma Sharon came to visit so mom could go to the football game and daddy could work in the garage, she gets to come AGAIN this weekend to watch Landon while mommy and daddy are at the craft fair and then Landon is going to see Grandma Julie on the 16th while mommy and daddy take their first little trip to watch football in Kansas.  To say he has been a little spoiled is an understatement, but he loves all of his grandparents!!

Tonight was beggars night and I think Landon was the cutest little moster out there!!

6 months ago today...

It is soo crazy to think that 6 months ago today I was just getting wheeled up to the NICU to see my beautiful baby boy...He is growing so much everyday and truly is becoming a little boy!  He is so happy and smiles all the time.  You can't help but love that grin!  He is now rolling continuously and will get stuck under the coffee table or with his legs straddling a toy.  He does NOT like it when he is in his bed and rolls himself stuck into a corner!  We have started liking bath a lot more...hopefully we will be sitting soon, so he can play a little bit. 

He is now eating "real" food at dinner time.  He has tried sweet potatoes, butternut squash, green beans and peas.  I am making more sweet potatoes, squash, carrots and apples tonight.  He loves everything so far with the exception of green beans.  He will eat them, but definitely not his favorite!!  We are also going to finally start letting him have some fruit.  They say to have them try veggies first so they don't like fruit so much they never want veggies.  We'll see how it goes...

We have our appointment on Thursday so not sure how big he is, but he is definitely getting a lot longer.  We have grown out of 3-6 month one piece outfits...just too long. 

Landon attended his first ISU tailgate and did really well, while he was there he discovered his feet, so that kept him entertained!!

We get his 6 month pictures taken this weekend, so we will update you soon with pictures and height/weight.

Enjoy, Melissa
