Another try....

After a few weeks of trial and error with baby food, we finally got something that Colt enjoyed for more than just a few days. Everything we "thought" he liked only lasted about two days of liking then he would gag and almost make himself sick over pretty much everything. Since day one of testing out baby food he has ate everyday rice cereal with apple juice, not water. I think the picture is proof that he liked it just a little bit!!
Bath time!
All clean, and apparently still hungry...
Less than two minutes after this picture he was down for the count!!

Since I've been back to work, life has been a little on the crazy side, and LOTS of things are being neglected... Including our blog. So here is a little update on the Fekkes fam. BJ and I managed to get a day away and night from the little man. It was an absolute blast! We went to Seattle with BJ's brother and his wife. Went to a Mariners game, to the Pikes Place Market, to a wonderful restaurant, and then to a Seattle Sounders soccer game! BJ thought I was going to be the nervous wreck without our wingman, but let me inform you that BJ was the one that made all the phone calls to his mom. Colt is loving going to Ambers house, and we LOVE that we are taking him there. She is amazing, her kids are amazing, the whole situation is AMAZING. We could not be happier with how our life has come together. For mothers day Amber made me an ornament to hang on the wall of Colts handprints. It definitely was a tear jerker. Her son Keegan also made me some delicious cookies! Mothers day was great, we got to play outside and watch BJ play soccer. He played awesome too!! I was really proud of him, and Im sure Colt was as well. Then we were off to BJ's brother and sister-in-laws for a family BBQ! 
It also was wonderful: ) 


Colt had his 6month well baby check and did awesome. Very little tears and really dirty look to the nurse. He now weighs 17lbs and 11oz and is 27 and 1/2 inches long. His growth is right on track. We started giving him baby food about 2wks ago. He has only tried three things and seems to like two of the three. Bananas, applesauce, and not really into squash. He is rolling over like crazy too. He is such a happy little man, we are SO LUCKY!!
