Real Love

Fred had his first Father's Day on Sunday.  He slept in a bit and then I made waffles for breakfast.  Yum!  After breakfast he wrote a practice GMAT test (wrote the actual test this afternoon to apply to an MBA program - he did awesome, of course).  We had lunch at Five Guys, chilled a bit in the afternoon and then had his dad, Todd and Ashton over for steak dinner.  Fred cooked dinner, it was delicious!  Good thing he enjoys cooking and didn't mind doing so on Father's day!  

Fred is a great dad to Lennon.  She is always full of smiles for him.  It's awesome to watch her face light up when he gets home from work every day.  He's been busy lately studying for the GMAT but always makes time to spend with Lennon and help out.  He absolutely adores her.  She will probably have him wrapped around her little finger in no time, if she doesn't already!  It really is the best to watch him with her.  Such love!  I feel so lucky!

Lennon is 5 months old now!  Wow, that went fast.  She is now rolling from her back to her tummy (see video) and is completely obsessed with her feet/toes.  Every time I lay her down to change her, her feet spring up and she grabs her toes and brings them to her mouth.  She absolutely loves her Jolly Jumper now.  After a day in the Jolly Jumper she got the hang of it. There's a perma-smile on her face when she's jumping.  It's great!  We've also started to seat her with us when we're having dinner now.  We're starting to think about adding solid foods to her diet when she turns 6 months old.  She really enjoys watching us eat and will stare at our mouths as we chew.  I think she'll be ready to try!

5 months old!
