Day 209 (or something like that)

I know, it's been a while since I updated you all. I've been a busy boy. I have spent nearly all my waking hours growing. I am about 15.5 pounds and will be 7 months old tomorrow. That means I have finally made it on to the growth charts for my actual age. I am in the 5th to 10th percentile, but hey as you know I started a little behind. I have an appointment at CHEO next week for what they are calling my 4 month check up. They will be checking to see that I am hitting all my developmental milestones okay. Mom sure things I am. She loves to brag about how well I am rolling over! That and how well I am sleeping. Every now and then I give a shout in the night to keep them on their toes but for the most part the Hawley house is getting a great nights sleep.

Dad was on TV last week doing a demo for Wall Juice (www.walljuice.com). Mom and I PVR'd it and watched it a few times, he did great! Everyone says I am looking more and more like him every day. Mom likes to think I look like her, but I don't think so. We went to a car seat clinic today and got my big boy seat put in the car. It's much more comfy than the old one. I flirted with the girls running the clinic and they all seemed pretty taken by me. Just wait until I get older! Tomorrow Mom and I are off to the passport office to get me a passport. We are hoping for a family vacation in February.

Day 197

Well we just got back from a very relax weeks vacation. Officially my first full weeks vacation with Mom and Dad. We borrowed their friends Thea and Andre's cottage for the week. My Aunt Steph, Uncle Bruce and cousin Lindsey joined us. The weather wasn't fantastic but we had a great week.
We went to Storyland where I slept for an hour and a half but Lindsey had fun. Mom and Dad managed to get a few hours of time together while Aunt Steph watched me. They went kayaking a few times and went to Wilderness Tours to do some biking.
When we got home Mom tried me in the Jolly Jumper again. I think I am finally starting to get the hang of it. Check me out!

Day 187

I'm back from another weekend in Barrie. It was a great long weekend. Not only did Dad win his football tournament, Mom and I got to spend lots of time with Grandma and Grandpa Gainsbrook. I also got to see all my cousins and my Aunts and Uncles again.
We took a family trip to the zoo on Sunday and I saw lots of animals that I had never seen before. There was a tiny baby monkey that was about the size I was when I was born! We had a nice picnic lunch and then went back to Grandma and Grandpa's for a big family dinner.
