Nico's 1st meal!

6 Months Old!

Isn't this the cutest tush you have ever seen????????

My boy loves to be nakie! Look at that smile on his face! I think he is the only baby who LOVES having his diaper changed. Everytime I take his diaper off he laughs. He is so funny!

Lou, Nico and I went to Iowa City for Labor Day weekend to visit Auntie Lindsey and Uncle Andy. They bought a hiking backpack for baby Jack so we put Nico in there like a high chair while we ate dinner. He loved being a part of the dinner conversation.

He has not even ever had rice cereal yet but his first food was a carrot stick (he is very advanced...just kidding :) We rented a pontoon boat in Iowa City so we had some veggies and dip on board and Nico now has a second tooth coming in so he is chewing like crazy. I thought he would enjoy chewing on a carrot stick and I was right. He thought he was so cool eating real food. He only has 1/2 of a tooth right now and he was actually shaving off little pieces of carrot with it.

This is about the only time he loved his life jacket. The rest of the time he tolerated it but he was not thrilled with it. He couldn't get his hands in front of him to get toys or his pacifier in his mouth but he was a good little boater despite his frustrations. It was our last shot at something summery before fall kicks in. Next year he will be walking all over and climbing on the boat seats and Jack will be crawling around. I do not think the boat ride will be quite
