Nearly half a year!

Well, we made it through the holidays and new year! It was nice, as it always is, to spend time with family. We are lucky that we live near enough to our families that we can spend the holidays with both sides and so far haven't had to alternate. It's especially nice now that we have Andrew - I want him to know and enjoy spending time with all of his extended family, as well as having them get to see him grow up :)

Facebook has been really helpful in allowing us to keep family and friends updated with photos and videos. It is so hard to believe that Andrew is nearly 6 months old - just a couple of weeks away!! In some respects I want him to stay my cute little baby forever, but it's also so much fun to watch how he grows and changes and learns new tricks!! I am always curious to see what new thing he will do each day, whether it's something brand new or just perfecting things he's been learning. He keeps us on our toes for sure - a "corral" will be very handy as soon as we get our hands on one - as he has finally figured out how to crawl!!!

Now to see the difference time can make - a picture from newborn and then 5 months!
