First Brothers Bath

McGrew Boy Bath....times 3!

 

This is what happens when you tell the big boys to "lean your head in close to the baby..."

Love these freckles...

 I'm so jealous of all my boys' lashes...so unfair!



Cousins

We are so thrilled that the Thompsons have made their way back to Texas after spending some time in Michigan. We love the thought of them being so close for a bit of time. Getting everyone together makes for a very exhausting day (especially with 6 kids under the age of 5) but we always have a great time! These 6 little ones have already started building some sweet relationships with each other. We had an extra special Memorial Day weekend as Jeff and Arianne were here on a 24 hour layover on their way home from a honeymoon trip to New Zealand!

The above pic is a bit dark (as it was taken during naptime) but I just loved that she had fallen asleep with her book on top of her.

 Arianne and Micah...

The 2 littles of the group...

 

Six Months

Half a year...how can it be that he's already this old? Didn't we just find out we were pregnant last week? This sweet little monkey is really growing up! He is over his colic phase and we couldn't be happier! He is still on meds for reflux but hopefully we can stop those sometime soon. At his 6 month check-up Micah weighed 14 lbs. 12.5 oz and was 26 inches tall. He has started on cereal and just tried avocado today. He doesn't seem to enjoy eating from a spoon and much prefers a bottle, but hopefully he will do better over time. He is still wearing 3-6 and 6 month clothing and size 2 diapers. It seems that he might favor his biggest brothers physique and be a bit scrawny. Reid was our chunky one but has thinned out a lot over the last year. Micah is very touchy-feely and tries to grab anything he can! He also loves to chew on anything he can get his mouth on. His big brothers can always make him laugh (and they do MANY times a day!). He still needs a good bit of support while sitting but he doesn't want to miss anything! He loves his paci. He is mostly a tummy sleeper but we've caught him sleeping on his back a few times recently. He is sleeping from around 9pm-7am (ish) and takes 2-3 naps a day. He has the cutest little giggle and I can tell he will have the sweetest little voice once he starts babbling! We're so in love with this sweet little red-headed monkey and are thankful that he is doing so well!
