Dawson is 6 Months Old!

Happy Half Birthday to Our Little Man!

We celebrated Dawson's 6th month with some special dessert...peach cobbler! He loved it! He did try to eat the candle, of course.
Dawson is growing so quickly! He can sit up by himself for about 30 seconds (then he topples over and starts laughing), and he can roll from his back to his stomach now. It's hard to believe that just a few months from now, he'll be crawling and babbling away!
Dawson's new favorite toy is his feet! He is one flexible little critter. He laughs out loud and smiles all of the time.

Every day with him is a reminder of how blessed we are that God allowed us to be his parents. He is truly the light of our lives!

Dawson is the cutest little baby! I know you are so thrilled about being that little boy's Moma. Just enjoy these times. They go by so fast! You'll look around and one day he'll be three years old!! And you'll think, "Oh, my goodness! Where did the time go?" Friends use to tell me that and I thought, "Na!" They were SO right!!

Wow is right. I feel so blessed to be able to watch him grow! We enjoyed him last night. He is a sweet baby. And most of all your guys are great parents. Lauren, you are doing a wonderful job.
XOXO to D'man

wow!!! Is he really six months old already? I love the pic of him playing with his feet. Can't wait to meet that little man!

We are free all next week (and the rest of this week too) You can tell that I am such a socialite since becoming a mom =)

D-word is 6 months old already... whew! He is just as beautiful and precious and wonderful as he was on day one and I can't wait to watch him grow over the next 6 months, 6 years, and... on. I just hope, for your sake, it goes by slow so you can take in every moment! Congrats on being an amazing mommy for 6 months... plus the 9 you had him all to yourself! ;-)

How sweet! I can't believe that he is 6 mo. What Rachel said cracked me up ;)! He is so precious and I know that Meag and I have enjoyed every moment we have spent with the two of you!!!

How precious! They do grow up so quickly. My baby just turned 9 months and she's starting to cruise. My older daughter didn't walk until after she turned one, this little one is going to be walking soon.
Life will never be the same once he's crawling around!

What a little sweetie!! They grow so fast don't they???

Leigh Ann said...

Seriously, he IS the cutest little thing EVER. Do you think he would be scared of me if just started kissing those cheeks when I see him? I know what you mean...it goes by so fast. What a sweet, sweet baby! I love that you celebrated with something sweet to eat. A boy after my own heart!
