Six Months Already?


Where does the time go? My sweet baby boy turned six months old on the 17th. I snapped this picture last week - you just want to eat him up!! It's not fair that babies grow up and change so quickly. The changes are small, but not until you look back at earlier pictures do you realize how much they have grown:

Tanner is SUCH a good baby! I know, I know...people say that all the time. But this kid really is. I'm sure a little of it has to do with me being older and this being my fourth child, but I've never had such a mellow, happy, smiley baby. (However, I must say that Tanner was by far my hardest and most painful delivery/recovery!) I'm sure Heavenly Father knew I needed a patient baby at this point in my life and I'm so blessed that Tanner is so calm and easygoing. This guy just goes with the flow and seems content no matter what and only cries when it's been too long between bottles. He's a great sleeper and can roll across the room in no time flat! We affectionately call him 'Tino' most of the time because when he was first born Mason couldn't pronounce the name Tanner very well and would always say Tino and the rest of us picked up on it too - we're afraid he's going to grow up thinking that's his real name!!

We can't quite figure out who he resembles the most - I don't see much of Mason in him. I think his build is very similar to Zach....... long body with skinny arms and legs. The last few weeks people have been telling me that he's looking a lot like Andrew. What do you think?

Before I know it, six more months will pass and we'll be celebrating his first birthday. I can't say with 100% certainty that Tanner is my last child, so I'm trying to savor this precious age as much as I can :)

I think he looks like Taylor. I am so glad you have an easy going baby. That is what I think about Hyrum too. Isn't it nice. My question is it them or us? Do we finally have this parenting thing figured out or did they just come this way?

That is such a cute picture of him. He is so cute. I think you are right, the Lord knows if your pregnancy is hard you need a good baby. I got one too.
