A Day In The Life of Bryson

Last week Chris was away at youth camp so I got to spend a lot of time with Courtney and Bryson. It was so much fun. Bryson is one week shy of six months! Can you believe it? He is really starting to develop his personality. He definitely doesn't like to lay back, he wants to be sitting up, standing in your lap with help or whoever is holding him to be up walking around. Laying down is for babies and he has definitely moved beyond that stage. He can now roll over from belly to back and almost from back to belly. He tries really hard to sit up, but is not quite strong enough. He drools constantly, but so far no teeth sprouting. He has now begun to eat some baby food and does the "What is that?" shudder very well. It's quite amusing to those of us around so we usually give him several tastes so we can have a good laugh. Anyway, here are some pictures I took of him last week while he was at the house.

First up, Mom and Bryson posing in front of the builder's sign where their new home will be. Hopefully they will be in by Christmas. Bryson wasn't near as excited as the rest of the family.

After we went out and saw the lot where their new house would be built we went to a drive through car wash. Bryson couldn't quite grasp what was going on. Look at those startled eyes! Of course we were all having a laugh at his expression. He never did cry, but when those big brushes would sweep by, he was definitely amazed.

After we got home, it was bath time. Bryson really loves his bath. Hopefully some day, he will forgive me for posting a nudie picture of him on the internet. I just love bath and water pictures though. He was just kicking and splashing and having a grand ole time and boy don't they smell sweet when they get out and get all lotioned up. Good enough to eat!
