A bunch of pictures from the other day. Chance turned 6 months old on the 21st. He is so big and so little all at the same time. Thinking about before he was around is strange, he is a whole little life and just sitting there on the floor trying to crawl around. It's a big concept to get your head around. He is really interacting with his world. He walks in the walker everyday and does tummy time for a while everyday too. He is going to start crawling any minute now. He pushes himself up really far with his hands and has started getting his knees under his hips. He rocks back and forth but doesn't go forward just yet. He pushes backward though and the other day got himself under the doggy bed. He pushed himself back till his legs were underneith it and then he couldn't go anywhere so he just gave up. You can see what I mean in the pictures. He has had two visiters and was good with both of them though with the first one she was holding him and when I left the room he would get upset but he was fine as long as I was there. This may be the beginning of stranger anxioty, I'm not sure. Scott's Mom has two dogs who are very nice and have been getting along very well with Chance (doggy beds). There is a picture in here of him trying to grab the camera. He tries to grab everything and of course he puts it right in his mouth. He loves paper, he will crinkly it and chew on it, he loves everything about paper. Any kind of paper too, he doesn't care. He will pull newspapers off of the table and papers out of my purse. There was a piece of blue note paper onthe floor and he wiggle over to it and grabbed it rather than any of his toys that were sitting all around him. Two days ago Chance was so tired and ready for his morning nap he started falling asleep on my shoulder and he started ot do it again this morning. He hasn't gone that in months, he is so cute I can hardly stand it. He has really been talking a lot lately, squealing and aahs and oooh. He is so funny, he also uses his cough a lot, I think he has just made coughing part of his everyday sounds now. I have too many pictures and not enough to say to make them all pretty on the page. Oh well.Since the carpet is sort of the doggies spot I have been putting down a blanket when Chance has his tummy time the other day when I put it down Alfie didn't want to move so here's a picture of what happened and one of Madeline just for good measure.
