Funny Shirt

Jo and Buddy gave Sawyer this very funny shirt for his birthday --- do they know him or what?!!?

Sawyer isn't smiling in the pictures because he is too busy telling me to "stop taking pictures"
And check out the new big boy haircut... super handsome!

Cactus in Bloom

The cactus at GM's house down the street is in bloom and so gorgeous. The flowers only come out at night... I went down to take pictures early in the morning and late at night.

Good Morning Boys!

The boys snuggled in our bed this morning and played for a bit before we got our day going...

Brothers? I think so!

The boys certainly look similar at 6 months of age (more so then I have ever thought before)... However, their Elvis lips go in opposite directions. Funny. Cooper also appears to have a nicer tan.



Cooper is 6 Months Old

It is hard to believe, but the youngest of the Slonim's hit the 6 month mark today.
I am hopeful to get him into the doc by weeks end for his stats.

Cooper is eating solid food 2x per day - a favorite is apples and carrot (at least he doesn't gag when he eats that). He gags through most meals, but doesn't spit it out or miss a bite -- he is a regular winner of the "clean plate" club and has the physique to show for it. And thanks God I believe we are down to 4 feedings (FINALLY) - and this mommy is starting to wean the breast milk and make the change for formula - enough already. Cooper is sleeping through the night and we are working on the "naps". He enjoys his cat naps more then anyone else does. He is an avid roller and can really spin himself around on his tummy. He is also starting to sit on his own and each day gets stronger. His hair is coming in nicely - a pretty shade of blonde, not the white his brother has. Cooper is also a drooler - I keep thinking teeth, but not feeling or seeing any pearly whites as of yet. He is mostly a serious little guy, but you can almost always get a squeal if you "scare" him.

Hope you enjoy these 6 month pictures of our Fats McGoo



Don't cry little buddy



Don't be fooled by this sweet picture of big brother - he had 2 time outs today for being rough with his brother... We have simple rules that we ask him to follow; 1) You can't drive over Cooper with your dump truck and 2) When Cooper is sitting you can't push him from behind so he face plants into the floor

And one of Sawyer taking a picture of me taking a picture of him.

Sawyer thought it was very funny that Cooper was wearing his clothes as a hat

Easter Bunny Visits

When we woke up this morning the Easter Bunny had been to our house...

Sawyer was very excited about all of his items

Cooper just liked the plastic grass


Sawyer likes to identify the colors of things, so I recorded part of a conversation we had

Egg Hunt

While Sawyer napped today the Easter Bunny hid eggs for him to find. He wanted to open each egg as he found it -- Uncle Jack thought it was going to take 3 hours!

Sunset, Dips and Ice Cream

We had a great time on the boat this evening. The "Dips" in the title doesn't refer to the company - we had an all apps dinner with a variety of dips and ice cream cones on the way in.


Kenny Wangen and cousin Warren

Great picture of Auntie Sonn and Uncle Jack -- you may see it again come Christmas (I think it is worthy of the annual card)

Sawyer and his buddy Cami

Dom and I

Curt and one hell of a tangled mess

I love this picture of Sawyer eating edamame -- that he calls "Uncle Adam Mommy"

Ice Cream Cone Time!!


Yummy!!

Dinner on the Beach

We had dinner at Morada Bay tonight and Cami took my camera to capture the evening --- these are some of my favorites of the 200+ pictures she took.
