6 months

When I took the pictures below either my flash was off or my camera was on the wrong setting or something, because clearly I am such a professional photographer. Ha! Unfortunately they are horrible but I didn't even check them because we were in a hurry to go somewhere. But it's what I've got...
A lady at church told us he had juicy legs.  She said, "I love a juicy baby."  We agree.


He weighs 17 pounds, 11 ounces (45th percentile) and is 26 3/4 inches long (50th percentile) and is 63rd percentile for head circumference.
We are so thankful for this sweet little boy who literally smiles and laughs ALL the time.
Juicy
The other day I walked in the den and he and Steve were sitting on the floor. Benton was crying. I asked Steve what happened and he said, "Nothing. He just started crying," knowing I wouldn't buy it. I said jokingly, "My baby doesn't cry. What did you do to him?" He had fallen over from sitting up and hit his head on the rug. He really is such a happy baby. I cannot believe he has been in our family half a year already!
Thank you for your continued prayers for Elliot and her family! *************************************************UPDATE************************************************************** I am so very sad to learn that Elliot passed away this morning at 11:11am. I know that Jesus welcomed his good and faithful servant into his loving arms and for that we can rejoice. My heart is broken, however, for the family and friends she left behind. Please pray for peace, strength, and comfort for Chris, Wyatt, Bradford and their extended family.

He is just a little doll-baby...seriously! I love his big grins & juicy legs! So sorry to hear this about Elliot. I tried to get to her Caring Bridge site the other day and couldn't, and am just now getting back to it to read her story. Prayers for this family, and you too!
