WOW! What a month! So many things going on the last 2 weeks, I haven't had time to catch a breath. I will start with our 6 month pictures. Last Friday Curt and I ventured up to Hamilton to have his first professional pictures made. We are using Tim Roberts Photography in Sulligent AL. He and his wife did a wonderful job getting our little wild man to pose pretty. I was a little worried about how Curt would do, but he blew me out of the water. He had the best time laughing, cackling, and smiling real pretty for the camera. We started the session with Mommy/Baby pics. He was in the best mood for these. I had the best time playing with him while Tim and his wife took pictures. We finished with pictures of Curt "sitting up" and posing real pretty. I haven't got the proofs back yet and I am dying to see them :)
After the picture session, Lee drove up from Birmingham and we took our first trip away. Yes, you heard me correct. WE LEFT CURT FOR THE FIRST TIME! It was a bittersweet trip, but much needed. We went to Memphis for the weekend and had a great time. I didn't even cry :) You forget real quick after a baby how important it is to stop and spend time with your spouse. We enjoyed sleeping late and lounging around, but we were ready to get home Sunday and see our little man. I don't even think he knew we were gone. He is blessed with wonderful grandparents, who lovingly took him in for a couple of nights. I think Lee and I will do this again sooner than later.
Now for the good stuff! On Monday, I took Curt for his 6 month check-up. I cannot believe he is 6 months old. Where does the time go? Drum roll please........23 lbs and 30 in. long!!! He is a beast. The Dr. told me was the size of an average 1 year old. Curt was such a big boy at this appointment. He sat up on the table (while tearing the paper into shreads) and didn't cry one time while Dr. Goldblatt checked him out. However, after the 6 SHOTS, he cried for quite a while. Who wouldn't? Everything looks good and we will see Dr. Goldblatt again in 3 months. Tomorrow we are going home for a small "Going Away Party" for Lee. Hopefully I will take some pictures and get them up on Sunday. Have a great weekend :)
P.S. I totally forgot.....CURT CUT HIS FIRST TOOTH!!! It has been a rough battle, but it is here. He has had a very traumatic week, but he has taken it like a man :)
