The Andrew Report

Andrew is ready for bed
Andrew's little friend Caroline

Andrew went for his 6 month checkup last Friday and he was 13lbs. 6oz. and 24.5 inches long. What a big boy!! He is doing so well and makes us so happy. He smiles all of the time and is very verbal. He has found his voice and has a high pitch squeal that he likes to practice. He is very close to rolling over. He continues to only sleep for 30-40 minutes at a time during the day. This makes it hard for his mommy to get anything done during the day. I spend a lot of time trying to get little Andrew to take a nap. I believe he thinks he is going to miss something if he sleeps to long. Andrew was sleeping through the night, but lately has been waking up once during the night. Darin has been out of town for about a week and comes home today. Thank goodness, we are looking forward to seeing him this afternoon.

Darin and I decided to celebrate Andrew's 6 month birthday this past Sunday.  I make a little cake and Grandma, Grandpa and GG came to help celebrate.  We had lunch at Applebee's and cake at the house.  Then it was off  to work for Darin.

Andrew's Adventures

Darin has been working a lot lately, so Andrew and I keep ourselves busy.  We stayed with Grandnana and Granddaddy last week when Darin was out of town.  We had a blast taking some fall pictures on the McKinney Square.  It was a beautiful day.

Updates on the Deavers

I thought this picture was hilarious with Dylan the duck.
Andrew is about to go cruising the neighborhood on a sunny day.

Andrew has had a few adventures lately.  I have not figured out how to get the text below the pictures.  I will have to wait on Darin for that one.  There is a picture of Andrew in his new highchair.  I wanted him to be able to sit with us at the table.  He was not too crazy about it the first time.   Andrew is getting stronger and is able to hold his head up fairly well.  We have a blast playing with him and watching him grow. 

All is well with the Deavers.  Andrew is keeping us quite busy these days and likes to be entertained  most of the time.  He has had lots of adventures and is so much fun.  He is so cute, I just can't stand it.  He likes his car rides, although he has not had any long ones yet.  We plan to take him to Longview soon to see the grandparents.  I could not resist putting so many pictures.  Darin  and I were even able to go on a date last night with the Greenwoods.  It was great.

Andrew is talking to his toys.
Look Andrew is ready for prep school.
Andrew is a very busy boy these days. He is doing a lot of smiling and grinning. He talks to his animals and is entertaining himself. He keeps his momma busy during the day and loves to look out any window. Andrew is healthy and putting on the weight. We are guessing he is around 12-13 pounds? We sure are having fun with Andrew. I promise to blog often.

All is well with Andrew at home. He is definitely getting more playful and active. He is smiling really big at his mom and dad. He loves to swing and likes to fall asleep in it, not his crib. He has almost doubled his weight since coming home. Andrew and mom get out of the house for a few outings a week to keep sane. We figured we would do our outings before cold and flu season begins. Andrew met his new friend, Caroline Rose, she is a cutie. Maybe someday Andrew will have some cousins. Hint, hint.
