6 Months

WEll its been a few weeks - but Nate was 6 months on January 9th - at a whopping 21 pounds 2 ounces. He's alost 26 inches long now! Very healthy and over the cold virus. They say his head may be too big, but may be because of all the weight gain. So now he's on 3 meals a day and a lot less formual! He loves the food. NOt sure about the peas or carrots, but the sweet potatos are a little better. Apple sauce isn't too bad either. ITs defiantely fun.

He looks to have two teeth coming in anytime now. Poor guy is in a lot of pain - lots of drool too! He's been a drool machine for a while now -but its neat to see the teeth.

Nate's also sitting up on his own and can roll over! He did that at Grandma's 88th brithday celebration for all of our amuzment! HIs cousin Travis thought it was pretty cool. Nate' loves Travis a lot -

Me - well it finally happened, I'm unemployed! I'm actually enjoying it now - I am home with Nate 3 days a week. His daycare is awsome - they are lettitng us take him there 2 full days to hold his spot to return full time! Wow - that is pretty nice of them. I had an interview yesterday and it sounds pretty good. I also had a job offer today for a company that thought they'd make the offer in November! So I'm pretty excited. We'll see. I'd like one over the other - but figured the income is better than unemployment. and it helps - for some reason people like to hire you when you are already working somewhere else! So who knows.

Well the Mr. Gabber box wants to play - so we are off to play with the "Learning Puppy" he got for christmas - he LOVES his puppy! It plays soungs, teachs colors and body parts.
Happy new year to all - hope this blog up date finds you all well.
