6 Month Dr Appt

Today Mikey had his 6 month Dr appointment. We all know that means shots!

Here's Mikey waiting for the nurse to come in. He has no idea what's gonna happen. Poor baby!



I don't know why Mike is so happy here. I think he takes the shots just as bad as Mikey does. I'm sure if he could get the shots instead of him, he would


Right after the shots! Poor baby, he was super mad!


Showing off his bandaids. They were SpongeBob!


Stats:

Weight: 16 lbs, 13 ounces
Length: 25.5 inches
Head: 43.2 cm (17 inches)

His weight is great and he's catching up on his height. Hopefully he won't get his mother's height!!!

6 months old!

Grandma Teresa baked him a cake. He didn't get to have any. Mom might have snuck him a taste of the frosting.


There are some big changes around here now that Mikey is six months old

He likes his highchair much better


He grabs for his feet


Mikey is NOT a fan of sitting


He is trying to hold his own bottle


He makes crazy faces just like dad!


He lets us put hats on him without getting mad




He holds his own bat. Go Rockies!


Up next.....6 month Dr. appt

He wasn't sure what to do with his cup cake



Mikey woke up and took a dip in the pool. He liked it much better than Water World.

It's his party and he can take a break if he wants to

Yet another father/son shot


Here are the three boys together. Mikey and Isaiah are not really interested in taking a picture


Uncle Adrian and Mikey

Cousin Leilani & our new cousin Abel got married on August 15. But the night before we all got together at Famous Dave's for dinner with both families.


Abel's mom and his nieces.


Adrian, Nate & Kellie


In laws getting to know each other


Nathan sitting with one of the flower girls. I think her name was Tailee (sp?). She was super cute. I think Nate thought so too.


Cousin Basil, cousin Ethan, new cousin Abel and Leilani


Christian, Talea, Evelin (another soon to be cousin), and Elmer


Tio Salomon, Tia Maruca, Abuelita Mercedes, Abuelita Benito


We always HAVE to get a father/son picture.


Isaiah very much enjoying his corn


The wedding was beautiful, take my word for it cause I didn't get any pics. Dealing with a baby who spits up and a satin dress is not an easy combo. Let's just say, the satin dress did NOT win. Congrats Abel & Leilani!!

Getting ready for winter.

Mikey's just getting ready for the cold winter. Like his beanie? Doesn't it accentuate his cute little cheeks?

Our trip to Lowe's.

Sunday Mike, Mikey and I headed to Lowe's to buy some "homeowner" stuff. I mean, that's what that store is for right? A nice man saw Mikey and said "What a cutie! Look at those cheeks!". I replied with "I know right?". Later he saw me and the baby standing with Mike and the man then exclaimed "Now I see he gets his cheeks from his dad!". Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! It was pretty funny! They are obviously twins.

Mattie's Birthday at Lakeside

Mattie turned three today and had her birthday party at Lakeside this past weekend. I hadn't been there in years and it was so much fun to walk around the park and bring back so many memories. It's rough turning three but Mattie handled it like a pro. She had pizza and punch and took off to ride kiddie rides. She came back later to open gifts and blow out her candles. After thanking her guests for the gifts and for attending her party, she was back to the rides. Mattie was a great host.



She has the best expressions! Very serious here!


Mikey was a good sport and rocked the tiara for a bit since it was a Princess Party.



He had a great time and can't wait to come back when he can get on a ride himself!

What time is it?

Football time baby! August 6, the Broncos held a practice at Invesco field and it was open to their fans. It was very packed for a practice. You should have seen the lines to the concession stand. Denver has some great fans!

Big Mike and lil Mikey. The baby was just so relaxed he fell asleep despite the crowds stomping their feet and doing the wave.


Isaiah didn't quite know what he was doing there but he was very entertained.



Nathan was excited too!



Nathan going up against some heavy hitters!



Adrian and his boys snuck into the player's locker room. Notice Nate "gently" urging Isaiah to look at the camera.


It wasn't working.


Mike getting suited up!

Rolling again.

Mikey was getting to be quite a little accomplished roller early on but he just decided he wanted no more. Until last week that is. I kept trying to capture it with my camera but he's just too quick.


Almost!



There's big Mike, always trying to be in the pic.

Big mess!

I was feeding Mikey his cereal and he decided he was done by kicking the bowl and spilling it all over himself! He is very strong and his kicks are getting stronger! Here's the aftermath:






Despite the sad face, I don't think he was sorry. Notice the Trump combover? Nice! He's trying to grow out his bangs.
