Chubba Lubba is 6 Months Old

Alex is already six months old and I can hardly believe it. I love playing the "I just had a baby" card when I am feeling plump but when it's been six months or more it's hard to have that excuse. I know everyone always says this but it really seems like I just had him and it's already been half a year!
What a good baby he is. Holy cow, most family members have never even heard the kid cry. I promise he does....like once a week. While Michelle was taking pictures of him, he was so chill and laid back. She asked if he was normally like this and he is. He is not the smiliest or a giggly baby. The best word to describe his personality is he is so CONTENT. Which is wonderful for us, juggling three kids and all.
Who does Alex look like? That's the million dollar question. I know people would disagree (since everyone thinks he is a clone of Drew) but Alex reminds me of me and my brother Eric. Even more than Olivia did at six months. So we will see how he turns out.
New things Alex is doing.... Honestly what does a six month old do? Although six months to one year is our favorite time. He does sit up, he doesn't miss a meal (as you can see), he says dadadada, which always bugs me, it should be mamamama, he hardly fits into 12 month clothes, which sucks since I have all 12 months stuff ready for summer, he discovered his toes but when he tries to reach them he grunts because he's so fat, and that's all I can think of right now.
Here are his six month pictures done by my amazing friend Michelle. I think the pics turned out great and totally captured Alex being Alex. He wasn't feeling well at all that day so to even get these great pictures makes Michelle amazing. Here he is...

Hollister, California

Last weekend Me, Tyler and Alex went to California for our niece's blessing. This was Alex's first plane ride and he was so spoiled to spend a whole weekend as our only child. Kathryn watched Olivia and Drew, bless her little heart. How her weekend went is a whole other story that she should post about. Anyways here is some pictures of our Alexander.







This was Alex's first visit with his Great-Grandmother Baba. She didn't like his spikey hair of course but she thought he was pretty adorable.
