Stike a Pose Sarabeth!


Dear Sarabeth,
I look at you and can't believe how fast the time flies. Everyone always tells me that you will grow up fast...you have. You had your 6 months shots today and did very well. You only cried briefly and then fell fast asleep on the way home. You are such a good baby.

You've learned to sit up on your own, which is your favorite way to play. You are scooting and army crawling everywhere. You even ventured off the side of the bed last week. I have so much fun playing with you. Your favorite toys are mommy's cell phone and anything that has a cord on it that you can chew on. I know these aren't age appropriate things to play with so you will usually settle for your snap together plastic toys and anything that makes noise.

You are so much fun to be around. You have a constant smile on your face and it's so easy to get you to giggle! You have a sweet countenance and are very adventurous. I think you are going to be a handful when it comes to getting you to stay put.

You love people, especially other babies. Your big blue eyes will follow any stranger until they are out of your sight. I'm sure taking you to public places is a vision stimulus overload!

I can't rock you to sleep much anymore, although I really try. You are very squirmy and want to explore and touch everything around you. You still reach for me and daddy when you are sleepy, it just melts my heart. You will only go to sleep with your pacifier and a blanket over your head...again I'm sure this is not the most appropriate thing to do but it works for you.

You love to eat! I try new foods with you each week and so far, no complaints.

You let me put big silly bows on your head still and you know how much I love that.

You are really loving to get to know your brothers Roscoe and Rowdy. You love Rowdy the best because he lets you pull his ears and poke his eyes. Roscoe just waits for you to throw a toy or food so he can catch it....and keep it.

Daddy calls you "doodles". He got that name from when you were little bitty and would curl up on him like a doodle bug. It's catching on, now I call you that too!

Sarabeth I love you so much. You bring joy to my life and warm my heart with every smile. I wish I could bottle these precious moments up and save them, for I know they will pass in an instant. Happy 1/2 birthday sweetie!

Love,
mommy
