This was Andrew's first time swimming in a pool.

Andrew Christmas Morning 2010

Here's Mommy and Adam helping Andrew peek into his Christmas sack.

Andrew got a bumble bee pillow pet.

He also got a Cars blanket with his name on it!

Here's some Little People he got in his stocking. He decided to taste them to make sure they were good toys. hehehe

After all the fun and excitement of presents from Santa, Papa and Andrew had to take another nap together.

Andrew's 1st Christmas Eve 2010

Andrew had fun chillin' in his swing while we opened family gifts.
Do you like how I don't buckle him in!
He had fun tearing the paper. (What kid doesn't, of course?)
Here's a cute little stack of 4 puzzles he got. Very educational. He's going to be so smart!
Papa's got him. I think Papa was ready for bed!

Chewing on shoes.

Andrew has always loved putting anything he can grab into his mouth. Everyone says, "oh, he must be teething". Nope, no teeth yet. He just loves to chew on stuff. He's like our little puppy. He can't help but chew on his shoes when I put them on his feet.

Andrew at 6 months

Here's Andrew in his little Christmas picture. He's about 6 months old.
At his 6 month doctor visit he was about 14 1/2 pounds and over 28 inches long. I think he's going to be the tall one in the family.

Andrew trying cereal.

Dan fed Andrew some cereal for the first time when Andrew was about 6 1/2 months old.
This is great fun for Dan, who never gets to feed Andrew. Andrew won't take a bottle and therefore only Mommy gets to feed him.
It took him a few weeks to figure out how to eat off a spoon, but now he loves it and eats a big bowl everyday. He is the only one of all our children who actually liked the cereal and finished off a whole box.

Andrew and Easton

Over Thanksgiving in Utah I saw my best friend from childhood years and her new baby Easton. Easton is about a month older than Andrew, and about 10 pounds heavier.
I have the feather-weight champion and she has the heavy-weight champion.
It was lots of fun hanging out with them.

Andrew and Cousin Cayden

Over Thanksgiving (2010) we went to Utah to see the family. Little Cayden Cosper was the newest cousin born. We hadn't seen him yet. He is a little under 3 months younger than Andrew.
Here's the new cousins chillin'.

Even though we weren't together over Halloween, we thought it was so funny that Cayden was a monkey and Andrew was the banana. We had to redress them in their costumes for this funny little picture!
We just know they will be best buds, even thought they'll only see each other a few times a year!

Andrew at 5 months.

Fresh out of the tub!
