It's My Half Burfday!!!

Today is Zachary's half birthday!!!! Can you believe it??? Our little prince is 6 months old. And to celebrate this special day we went to the doctor's office so he could get poked a few times. He was such a little trooper. He got a flu shot as well. He seems to be doing well so far. Hopefully no fever or crabbiness will follow. We have been feeding Zachary vegetables for about a month now so we decided to celebrate this special day that we would finally give him some fruits. I snuck in some applesauce earlier in the week unbeknownst to Joe. Zachary just kind of stopped and stared at me....as if to say "What are you giving me Mom!? Too sweet too sweet!" So today we tried some bananas. That stuff is disgusting! I LOVE bananas but this stuff was so gross. Zachary wasn't too sure what to make of it either. So he didn't eat that much of it. But he sure did eat up his Sweet Potatoes.
He is at such a fun age right now. Making new noises all of the time, constantly wanting to grab at everything, and just being so dang cute! He is starting to get the hang of rolling over. We were playing on the floor of our living room this afternoon and I went to go get some socks for him out of his room...when I came back he had rolled from his back to his stomach. He had this HUGE-o grin on his face. He was so proud of himself.
I'm so grateful that Heavenly Father has blessed us with parenthood. Zachary is such a joy in our lives. He makes the mornings so wonderful (no matter how early) with his precious smile. I know that we are loved by him by his reaction anytime that Joe or I walk into the room. We are grateful for our little family and the knowledge that our family is an eternal family.
