Best Buds

Sage and Rosco have really bonded recently. They pay quite a bit of attention to each other and are so loving and gentle. It's so cute...






Here's a picture of our happy guy ready for some spring sunshine...

Six month stats

Sage had his six month check up today and it's a good thing he did. He has been fighting a cold, which apparently turned into an ear infection. Poor baby - his first ear infection.

He's growing as expected though. He weighed 17 pounds, 14 ounces and is 27 1/4" long. He's in the 50th percentile for weight and 75th for height.

He was really showing off all his skills at the doctor's office. He was rolling, trying to sit up, waving his arm, stomping his feet, and babbling away. The doctor couldn't get over how "charming" he was.


Jared sent me this picture at work the other day. For some reason, it made me cry - my little baby is growing up!

Happy 1/2 Birthday Sage!

Sage is six months old today! Wow, how time flies!

Yesterday, he had his first taste of food other than formula and cereal. We tried peas. Here's what he thought...

I love the look on his face. He was like, "What IS this?" He really didn't care for the peas. But, Jared said when he tried them again this morning, he ate most of them. Stay tuned for more first foods pictures!

Time for some new pictures

We apologize that this hasn't been updated in a few weeks. Jared and I were both really busy with our classes and work. We both had huge research papers to do! But, don't think we haven't been enjoying our little man! Here are some pictures to show how he's growing and changing...






Sage is growing so fast. We can hardly believe that he will be six months old on Monday! It seems like just yesterday that he was born. It's amazing how quickly he has grown from a totally dependent, largely immobile, passive observer to this little wiggle worm who actively seeks out new experiences.
