Better Later Than Never??

OK, so it's been far too long since I've posted on the blog and I'm embarrassed when I see the last post. I'm claiming the 6 month old boy as my excuse. But...better late than never I suppose.

Finley has been such a joy to us. It's amazing to think of all the things he'll be experiencing for the first time this year...both bad a good. He's rolling over, as a matter of fact this is his method of transportation when he wants to get somewhere mommy hasn't figured out yet. He is also doing what Stu calls the "reverse centipede" -- this is when Finley lays on his back, digs his heals into the ground and pushes off. It's quite efficient.


First Haircut. He actually needs his 2nd hair cut (notice in the pictures below). We call his hair "The Donald" or sometimes "Baby Toupee"

First time meeting his China-based cousins, aunt and uncle. He sure loves playing with George and Madeline.

First time swimming. Look at that face...he really did enjoy the water.

First (and 2nd) tooth. He doesn't quite know that biting mommy's fingers hurts

Lastly, congratulations to Todd, Stacey and Avery...they welcomed their newest addition on Tuesday. Her name is Addison Smith Gardner and she's a cutie.
