6 Months and CARROTS!

I turned 6 months old on September 18th! To celebrate, Mommy and Daddy took me to Hollis Gardens in Lakeland to take a whole bunch of pictures of me with Gramie, Grandpop and G-ma Maribeth.

...yay?

Grandpa took a lot of the pictures, and I tried to be on my best behavior - but it got hot quickly and then I got sleepy. Mommy and Daddy were so proud of me though. They got some good shots. We'll share the pictures soon, we promise.

Then Grandpa, Mommy, Daddy and I went home for a quick lunch. Mommy prepared my usual cereal meal and then added a strange orange paste to the cereal. Mommy took a bite and made a yucky face, so I was a little apprehensive. But then she sounded really excited about feeding me the orange paste, so I figured it couldn't be that bad. Turns out, this orange paste is called carrots. And it ain't half bad!

Afterwards, Grandpa and Mommy took me to IKEA. I missed a big portion of the showroom, on account of my carrot-induced coma. But once I woke up, Mommy carried me around in the Baby Bjorn, which she thought was clever. Mommy sure can be silly sometimes. Grandpa showed us what he already bought for a camper he's building - which sounds neat! - and he picked up a few more items.

After IKEA, Grandpa left to go back to Perry, it sounded like Grandma had her hands full with cousin Elsie and Wil and Grandma needed backup. So we just relaxed for the rest of the day.

All in all, a great 1/2 birthday!
