Where has the time gone!

Where has the time gone. I can't belive that Kase is over 6 months old now. I apologize it has taken me so long to post for his 6 month info, but we have been batteling all kind of sicknesses. Also I appologize for the delay of offical 6 month pictures. Our flash for our camera is in the shope :(

We went to the Ped. office on Tuesday. His ears are looking better and recovering nicely from his ear infection. Kase wasn't able to get his 6 month shots or flu shot becuase he started getting congested and they didn't want to add anything to make him worse. The Doctor said that he was growing well. He was 18.5 lbs and 28.5 inches long. He is in the 95% for height and about 50% for weight. So we had a tall and skinny kiddo.

Also another interesting thing is that he is grabbing everything with his left hand. That would just make daddy happy to have a really tall lefty. That would make for a great pitcher :).

Kase is so close to both sitting and crawling. I just know any day he's not goign to be where I left him. He seems like he is goign to get teeth any day now too. I can't belive how fast he has grown. Time sure does fly.

Gig'em Aggies

WHOOP!!! Well today marks the first game of the 2009 football season. This is a very bittersweet day. Today marks the loss of my husband for about 4 months. Between Aggie football games and Cowboy's games, my husband is a lost cause until the Superbowl. I haven't decided if its a good thing or a bad thing. He focuses all of his energy on football which mean I get alot of alone time. Scrap booking, shopping, what ever I want to do. This year is slightly different. We have Kase now. So my normal scrap booking or shopping time is now Kase time. Chris is so excited about getting to watch football with Kase, so I could just leave the boys to it. My fear is that Chris gets so engrossed in the TV that he might completely ignore his cries. To break the TV hold I must stand in front of the TV or call Chris' name loudly. I don't know if crying will do it or not since I can talk non stop and he will not even know I'm in the room.

Any way :) I do want to give a shout out to the Aggies. Tonight they won their first game against the New Mexico Lobos. 41-6. My son's first Aggie football game, on his 6 month birthday was a winner! Gig'em Aggies... Lets hope this season is better then the last couple! Looking forward to Sept 19th against Utah... this will be the first game of the year at Kyle Field.

5 Months Part 3: Bad Dreams

As Kase gets older, he is becoming much more expressive. You can tell now what he wants. He reaches for things and acutally moves to go and get them. He laughs at his daddy and me when we do something funny. He is also developing quite the little temper which at times is funny but others can be a little frustrating. On the weekends he wakes up around 7:30 and has a bottle. He then likes to take a morning nap. He hangs out on the couch with mommy in our PJs. One morning we caught him having a dream. Poor little guy. It really makes you wonder what they dream about.

5 Months Part 3: Who needs a roller coaster

I have decided that Kase is going to be a roller coaster lover. He loves to be thrown around. He also loves to look upside down and hang off the couch. He loves to bounce on the bed. There is a bed at our ranch house that is really bouncy and squeaky and that is great fun! Any time he is upset if I pick him up and toss him in the air or give him a little bounce he starts laughing and cheers right up. His giggle is just so cute. This is also a great work out. I work my biceps and triceps without ever having to leave the couch.

5 Months Part 2: NO Broccoli

At 5 months old we found out that Kase HATES broccoli. Our doctors encourage us to make our own baby food. So we were pureeing anything we could get our hands on. He has really enjoyed peas, carrots and apples. He tolerates sweet potatoes, and dislikes squash. He has a whole level of hatred for broccoli. It was actually pretty funny. Broccoli can flying back at me... he even shutters at the after taste. Check out the video :).

5 Months Part 1: Inks Lake

Kase turned 5 months old. We had alot of very exciting happenings during his 5th month of life. Our first exciting event was Inks Lake! Every year my side of the family gets together and spends a long weekend at the lake. The last few years we rented a house. The house has 3 rooms which is tricky with 16 people. However to me it works better then camping because it has an AC. This house also has a hot tub and a pool table for entertainment. So along with hanging out with family Kase got to go on his first boat ride. He really seems to like it. We bought him a really cute little life jacket. We bought the smallest one they had and it was still way too big!

Uncle Colby makes the best highchair!!

Blog Catch up - Part 8: Jumperoo

Well I think this is my last post and I've caught up. Due to all the other toys we have we were not planning on purchasing a Jumperoo. Our cousins who have little boys a few months older then Kase were going to pass theirs down to him. However, Kase is bigger then his two cousins. Or pretty close in size so Kase would grow out of the jumperoo before he would be able to inherit it. After looking at Babies R Us we found an adorable one. Kase LOVES Old McDonald Had a Farm. Thats his favorite song. He smiles and laughs every time he hears it. We found this Jumperoo at the store called the Fisher Price Laugh and Learn. It has barn animals and plays Kase's favorite song. So we went ahead and bought. He likes it alot and he's trying to figure out how to turn the seat around. He can some, but he gets stuck and frustrated still.

At the front of the toy there is a ball that spins around with some ducks in it. That is by far his favorite part of the Jumperoo. Ducks are his favorite right now. Other then the Elephants he still loves. I really do think Yellow is currently his favorite color. He'll drop anything he's doing for something yellow if its offered to him. Its adorable. I'm afraid mommy and daddy are going to have to buy ducks pretty soon. lol

I'll have to get some video of him in his Jumperoo but the pictures will have to do for now!
