Preston's 6 month stats

Almost forgot! We had Preston's 6 month appointment last Friday and he's weighing in at 18lbs 4oz and is 26" long! Preston spent a lot of the appointment sitting up staring at himself in the mirror while ripping up the paper he was sitting on. The pediatrician couldn't believe how close he is to crawling already and is very impressed with his sleep "skills". She told us to start him on solids immediately so we did! He's loving them and his growing belly is proof. He got 4 shots and cried just a little.

Preston's first food!

Just before we left for Vegas we gave Preston rice cereal for the first time and he gobbled it right up like a big boy!! It's like he'd been eating food his whole life. He opened right up and swallowed it like a pro:) BT and I keep saying he's grown substantially in one week as a result of eating solids. This week he started on carrots and sweet potatoes and loves them both. Sophia also helped give Preston a bottle this week which was a very "awww" moment for us:)

Chillen' in the bumbo before his first feast!


Mmmmmm:)



Aaaaaa done!

Our "awwwwwwww" moment of the week: Sophia giving Preston a bottle for the first time

Las Vegas Summer 2010

We decided to tag along with Nana and Nonno on their trip to Las Vegas. We told Sophia about the trip so the morning we were leaving first thing she said when she woke up was "Las Vegas???"(actually more like "Los Begas???"). She did SOOOO well on the car ride there. I'd gotten her lots of new toys for the car which helped. We had a HUGE suite and another hotel room attached where Nana and the kiddies slept. Nonno had another hotel room allll to himself(can't say we blame him ha!). Nana took care of the kids one night so we could hit the town with some friends but the pool with the kids was the highlight!! And of course we all enjoyed many trips to the buffet:) We didn't take many pictures but here are a few:

Our big night on the town!!
It's Pool time!




Sophia spent a lot of time on the hotel room phone crank calling other rooms until we unplugged it:)

Preston spent a lot of time on the hotel room floor eating his toys like this:
