Gill's First Vacation

Gill went on his first vacation over Spring Break. We went to Lost Pines in Bastrop with all my college friends, their husbands and babies. There were 5 boys and Marjorie, Emily's little girl. Everyone was under two years old. Even though the weather was bad, we had a great time. Gill did awesome! When we got back, we started on veggies - peas first. He is definitely going to win an eating contest or two in his life (even if it's at home against Trey). I was in NYC with my Corsicana girls for the last part of the break. We had a great time staying up all night talking. While I was there, Gill had carrots and loved them. Trey also lowered his bed - he's just getting so big & active - it was time. When I got back on Saturday we tried the sippy cup and he was able to hold it himself & actually likes water. (I didn't know the stopper had to be in, at first it just poured all over him. Then once my friends told me it was supposed to be in, he was able to do it! Motherhood doesn't always come naturally!)

6 months old already!

Gill's stats:

Height: 28 1/2" - 97%

Weight: 19 lbs, 5 oz - 80%

Head: 17" - 35%

He had his first rice cereal tonight & of course ate the whole bowl! He's laughing and rolling all over the place...he is so much fun, but I can already tell he's going to be trouble.
