Mayhem

Yesterday was a weird day. Started out with an accident on the corner of Upshur and 4th that made a horrible sound and drew me out of the house to see what was going on. Followed by a crazy storm that fell a tree on our street. Then there's life without Andy. I have let the kitchen go, I seriously don't care anymore.
 Louis went to the pediatrician. He weighs a little over 19 pounds, and he has slimmed out quite a bit, especially for his length (29"). We're gonna step it up with the solid foods, tonight were going to try salmon!

Water

Anything involving water will keep Louis occupied. You can't really see it but there's water on his tray.

Dirt is fun

Spinning and Chanting

Louis has been spinning himself in circles while he sits on the floor and says, "Ahh.."

Summer

Louis has been eating beets again. Right now it's Mommy, Mimi, and Grandma Carol holding down the fort while Andy is out of town. Lots of lady time for Louis. It's been hot and steamy so we've been visiting the community pool and the kiddie spray park. He absolutely LOVES the water. He doesn't care if it gets in his face, he is not scared at all and I think he'd jump off a high dive to get himself into the water. No fear. Andy is going to take Louis to a series of swim lessons in July.
There's lots of screamy chatter in the house (not me, Louis) and the stairs are still a favorite activity. He gives lots of hugs and kisses, although the kisses are bites when he gets excited. This is a problem since he's got 4 teeth now. He was crawling on me tonight and got excited and bit my tummy. Ouch!!
We've got a 9 month pediatrician check up next Monday so we'll get to see how much he weighs and how long he is now, should be interesting.

Our morning

Happy Father's Day

And a Happy Father's Day to Grandpa Charlie and Grandpa Bill!
