360 Degree Mobility

Uh oh, Wes is on the move at five and a half months old! It may not be in the forward motion yet, but he thinks doing circles on his belly are pretty cool. The phone in his hands was given to him by his cousin Kyler. This was Kyler's favorite toys when he was little, so he thought that Wesley would really like it too. He was right. Thanks Kyler!

First Pier Walk

Last Thursday night we decided to take Wes out on the pier for the first time. I think his favorite part was people watching.

Teething Rings

When I was putting some of his toys back into the toy crate, I noticed that Wes had gained quite the collection of teething rings. His collection is quite diverse, isn't it? I wonder which one will be his favorite...

Cereal from a Spoon

At Wes' 4 month check-up the doctor said to start him on rice cereal at 5 months. That is just what we did. For the last few weeks we would put some in with each of his bottles of milk. Over the weekend Ben decided to see if he would eat it from a spoon. He made a few faces, but he got the hang of it. He probably ate a few tablespoons full. I have a feeling he is going to start to pack on the L.B.'s soon. :)

More Orange Plaid...

I couldn't resist trying to get some last cute pictures of Wes in his orange plaid golfing outfit. The hat is already too small and the pants are on their way of becoming too short. It is so sad when he outgrows my favorites. His legs have grown a lot in the last two weeks. When we bought the jumperoo two weeks ago we had to put a blanket underneath so that he could touch. The blankets are no longer needed... (To see an enlarged version of the pictures, just click on the image. Hit the back button in your browser to return back to the blog for more Wessy cuteness.)

Water Baby

I've been itchin' to get Wes' blow-up pool out, but the weather this summer hasn't been cooperating. I got all excited when I saw that it was sunny out on Sunday. I forgot about the wind factor. We could only play in the pool for about 15 minutes before he was shivering. Hopefully we can try it again next weekend.

Wesley J.

I took these last weekend out in the yard. They were too cute not to share.

Go Daddy!

On Monday Ben was asked to sub in the 4-on-4 volleyball league down at Silver Beach. Wes and I went to cheer him on. Here is Wes just chilling in his beach chair cheering his daddy on.

Go Daddy! Hit that ball!
