Happy Half Birthday!

I can't believe that half a year has gone so fast! Easton turned 6 months old today and he's still just SO SO sweet. The poor little guy has been fighting colds, fevers and an ear infection for the past couple of weeks. Because of him being sick he STILL isn't sleeping through the night. There were a couple of nights that Tyson and I had to take shifts with him - he would sleep, but insist that we held him the WHOLE time. Other nights, he'll get up almost every hour, but the past few nights, he's only gotten up maybe twice. Needless to say, we're all still pretty tired around here. Brenna was such a good sleeper (she slept 11 hours consistently starting at 3 months) so this is new to us and we REALLY hope it changes for the better soon. He doesn't go in for his 6 month check up until Monday, but as of last Sat. when we took him for his ear - he weighs 20 pounds!!! Brenna was MAYBE that much at 12 months. He's not fat - he's just SOLID! He's started solid foods, but doesn't seem to care for them just yet (he is, however, very interested in food WE eat - none of this baby food stuff for him!) Since we have such a solid child, we had to go out last night and spend more money on ANOTHER car seat. This one should last him until he's 100 pounds - so I think we're set.
He's getting pretty good at sitting and he totally knows how to roll over, he simply chooses not do do it very often. He was in a silly mood this morning, so I thought I'd snap a few pictures, but of course, he decided to stop the smiling when he saw the camera - here are a few good ones. Happy Half Birthday Bud!!
