Time For Cereal!!!

At our 6 month check up we were given the thumbs up to start feeding Will cereal. Tonight was the first night that we offered it to him. He was a little confused at first, but very quickly realized how yummy it was. Before we know it he will be eating the same foods as us.

This Stuff Is Good!

Will's 6 Month Doctor Appointment

Will had his 6 month doctor visit today. Our pediatrician is very happy with how he is growing and developing. He weighs 14 lbs 8 oz and is 27 inches long. We were given the thumbs up to start feeding him rice cereal, which we will probably start in the next few days. He had to get three shots today and one oral vaccine. It is so hard to see him get so upset when he gets his shots. He was asleep in the car within minutes after we left. He does not have to go back to the doctor until his 9 month check up, which we are all happy will involve no needles! Our little man is growing up so fast!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!

We had a wonderful 4th of July Weekend! Grandma and Grandpa Wallace were in Hawaii on vacation, so we decided to live over there for the weekend so we would have unlimited access to Wally World. Uncle Jeff, Aunt Robyn, and cousins Rylie and Avery ended up spending the holiday weekend at Wally World as well. We had a fun filled weekend. On the 4th the weather was perfect pool weather. Several of our friends came over to spend the day swimming and then we had a barbeque. Rylie could not get enough of "Baby Will". She loved playing with him and making sure that he was content and not crying. We had a very relaxing weekend laying around the pool.

6 Months Ago Today...

Happy 6 Month Birthday Will!

Where has the time gone? We can not believe how much Will has grown; he is far from the 5 lb 6 oz he was when he was born. We are guessing he is at least 16 lbs now. He goes for his 6 month check up in another week and a half and then we will find out exactly how much he weighs.

Will 6 Months Old

Yesterday was Will's first day at Daycare. It was a very emotional day for mommy. We are so thankful that the 4 grandparents have been able to watch him the two days a week that I work up until now. It was a very hard day, but was much easier than it would have been if Will was only 10 weeks old. He will be in Daycare with 6 other little boys, 2 of them only 4 days older than Will. He seemed to enjoy his first day of hanging out with his new friends. I am able to go and visit him on lunch, which makes it a little easier on me. Hopefully he will only have to be in daycare for 9-10 months until Grandma Zink retires, and then she is going to watch him. It is so nice to have family that are local!

Will Meets His Girlfriend

My coworker had a baby last Saturday and yesterday we went over to their house for a visit. It was so surreal seeing Emma 5 days old, and how tiny she is. 5 1/2 months ago Will was that small but it is hard to remember how tiny he was. It is crazy to see how big he has gotten when he is compared to a 5 day old. It is great that Emma and Will are going to grow up being only 5 1/2 months apart. They will have a lot of fun memories playing together.

Will goes through phases of whether he enjoys tummy time or not. We were able to capture a few pictures of him the other day enjoying it.

Will's 1st Camping Trip

Will had the opportunity to go on his first camping trip over the weekend. This was our 5th annual camping trip on my father- in- law's hunting land in Angelica. Daddy, Will and I went up on Thursday and got camp all set up and Will spent his first night in a tent. We ended up setting up a second tent for the dogs to sleep in. Will did very well for his first camping adventure and slept well in the tent. On Friday it was extremely hot, and around noon Will had enough of the heat. I drove Will to Mt. Morris and met up with Grandpa Zink and Great- Grandpa Povio and they took Will back to Rochester. He spent his first weekend away from his mom and dad. We all did well with it, although Bill and I missed him a lot. 4 other fraternity brothers and 2 girlfriends came up on Friday and we had a great weekend in the woods and away from reality!
