A Very Merry Unbirthday

Took Emmett to the doctor today for his 6 month well check!

18lbs -80%ile
27 inches long -80%ile
Head (don't remember) but it was 80% as well

He is one proportional kid!

On Sunday I made up for my lacking of no Easter basket on Easter and made Emmett a 1/2 birthday cake for his 1/2 birthday. And Mike and I reaped the benefits of it. He did get a good taste though.



Please don't zoom in on the cake, its quite ghetto. 


You zoomed in didn't you??

And I just have to add this picture: It reminded me of the movie Dumb and Dumber when Harry stuck his tongue to the frozen pole and it got stuck there. I couldn't find a picture of that, but the one from "A Christmas Story" gives a good description too. 





Hopefully this isn't going to be Emmett in 10 years.

Lisa, you are so cute and creative! I love the half cake! I am a friend of Mike's from the mission. He told me about your blog, and I check it every once in a while. You are such a cute family!!

Lisa! He is growing big and strong! I too loved the half cake idea... didn't pull it up for a closer look, but I'm pretty sure your 6th month old wasn't too worried its appearance! ;D

In response to your comment about wearing Addie... I promise she's heftier than she looks. Although she's recently been sick, she's about 9.5 kilos, which is about 21 lbs. My whole body starts feeling too heavy eventually, but the thing about the wrap is that it evenly distributes her weight so it doesn't kill my back or shoulders. Phew. (Holy Moley--This should be called a letter and not a comment!)

That is not a ghetto cake. What a great idea. It is so cute and he just keeps getting cuter and cuter.

Happy 1/2 Birthday Emmett!!! Lisa - you are such a good mom to celebrate his half birthday and I didn't zoom in for a closer look until you asked me (it looked great!)

Ahh, Happy Birthday on the half little guy. He's 80% bigger than his mom was at that age as well.
