I know it's no excuse to keep you faithful bloggers waiting, but I apologize. We have been very busy and I have neglected my blogging duty. So...the tale of the tape. Jude is now 6 months old, weighing in at 20 lbs, standing atop his class in weight (90%tile) and head size (95%tile). I'm not sure if these are bragging points or not, but there you go. He is officially eating foods now. Baby cereals, fruits, and veggies. He reaches for everything, can sit up, and scoot backwards on his tummy. At bath time has graduated to playing with toys. His favorite pastime is slapping, and bouncing. He is really starting to show a personality.
Bethany and I are doing great. We got a pseudo jump on Christmas shopping this year. Looks like we will be done 5-6 days ahead of time this year. This Friday is the annual Nutcracker evening. We have our best seats yet. Front row orchestra. Pretty excited.
Anyway, we are loving being mom and dad right now. Each and everyday Jude grows into his own person, adding so much love and enjoyment to the family.
We miss you all. Merry Christmas!

The Santa hat pic makes my heart the size of Texas. I love him so much and I'm so sorry we've been so distant lately!!! I love you guys, too!!! Thanks for being the bestest friends EVER!
I can't wait to bring him gifts! Thanks for the post Bennett - you're back on the "good" list!
Busy, busy, busy...that is definitely the phrase of our life these days. I was so happy that you thought to send us a Christmas card this year. I can't even believe I haven't seen the little man. I feel like such an awful person. My children and family occupy more time than I have available. Enough about me...Jude is such a cutie, I can't decide who he looks like. I am so happy for your family, it is easy to see how complete he makes you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, and maybe someday we will have a chance to catch up! Love, the Ballards
We miss Jude already... he texted me to say that he thinks you guys should come up to Cleveland in January. He said something about his mommy and daddy needing rubs?!? Anyway, I'm looking VERY forward to seeing the photos Ben snapped. Hope you enjoyed the 'oreo zert'!
Love to you!
Right now, at this exact moment, I am teaching my mother how to post a comment.
