6 Month Checkup

16 lbs 2 oz, 25 1/2" tall, and his head is in the 90th percentile. He's a smartie :)

Dominic is starting to grab at everything in sight. This makes things a little more difficult when you're trying to hold him while wearing jewelry, your hair down or especially if you're wearing glasses.... I think this might be the funniest picture ever!
I brought Dominic down to the San Leandro Marina today for lunch. My parents used to bring us here as kids. Dominic loved the breeze in his face and watching the planes fly in.

Just another day at the office...handling business :)

Dominic is 6 months old today. He's starting to be less and less content in his variety of contraptions that we keep for him at work. As a result we've been spending more and more time exploring the showroom. Another generation growing up in the world of flooring that Brian and I and both of our Dad's were raised in.

Father's Day

Sooo Big

Dominic got a new book that he loves to read.... and eat :)
Took a picture in his giants outfit again, he fits in it now.

This week....

Dominic started watching Baby Einstein.

And playing baseball :)

He got to play and work on his sitting with his cousin Gavin

and his friend, Andrew.
And Nana and Papa came for a sleepover.

5 month pics

It only happens a couple of times a year that all of the cousins on either side are all together. This week was one of those occassions.

Sittin Up

Dominic's officially been sitting on his own for a couple of days now. Trying to post a video but having problems.

Camping

This weekend we went camping with friends for Brian's birthday.

The weather was great and the lake was beautiful. We had a lot of fun spending time with everyone. Dominic was loving all of the attention. Not sure how much everyone was loving him in the middle of the night though :) We had a rough time to say the least and tents aren't the best at containing noise.

Dominic is almost 5 months old now and we're loving this age! He loves cooing away to himself or to anyone around. He's very smiley and the giggling is the best. He's 15 lbs 6 oz. He started eating rice cereal a couple of weeks ago and has been doing pretty well. It looks like he'll be sitting on his own in no time, he can hold himself up now for a little while but then topples over slowly. He's been a big fan of his feet this last couple of weeks. Can't keep them out of his mouth, if he's laying down on his back he's most likely folded in half.

Mother's Day

We went up to Napa for brunch on Mother's Day. It was beautiful and a great way to celebrate my first Mother's Day.

The Ocean

Dominic's first dip in the ocean.

The little tourist.

Dominic and I are in San Diego this weekend visiting my best friend Mindy.
