Happy 1/2 birthday Attison!

Laughing out of focus

I made this video and then "made" an awesome video between this one and the one I posted yesterday.  But that middle time it wasn't actually recording.

Dang.

So this video is out of focus, but you can hear him just shouting with joy.  One time he laughed so hard he stopped breathing for a second.  I was sure he was going to slap his knee and say "did you guys just SEE HER???"  He thinks Jenny the dog is the most hilarious thing that ever happened.

6 months old!

Attison celebrates being 6 months with a ride on the swing!

Here he is watching the dogs play in the park, which he likes doing more than actually swinging.

Squealing with delight

This is a 7 minute video, which is long.  But you have to watch the first 45 seconds.

Other things we grew out of...

After we found Attison completely out of the safety straps (that we had bucked him into!) and standing up in the Rock n Play, we decided it was time to say goodbye to this amazing, life saving, baby rocker.  

It has been a great ride Rock n Play. Thanks for being my 2nd set of arms, the only place the baby would nap, our travel crib, etc. for these 6 months.  

Here is Attison when he was so very small in the same Rock n Play:http://attisonjames.blogspot.com/2012/12/mr-baby-smiles.html

Too big for the swing

After this day of swinging, we decided to go dig out the safety straps that come with this swing, which I had previously thought we weren't going to need.  

Back in December, I never imagined that this kid would be able to wiggle his way out of a swing, while it was swinging.

Moving and grooving

Sorry we've been slacking on the blog for awhile.  To make up for missing posts, I've gone back in time and added posts for the month of May!  Keep scrolling down to see three weeks of Attison pictures!

While I was working in his bedroom, Attison started here: 

And wiggled to here:

Moved back to the same starting position, I next turned around to see him here: 

We're not moving forward yet, but trying really really hard!!!
