5 Months - Boone

Just look at this little chunk! He is constantly smiling. We're finally slipping into some routines that have helped us all function a little better and things are getting fun. 

We've started venturing out a lot more as a family than we have been for the past 5 months. We've conquered our first cold! He's even starting to sit up on his own. Christmas has come and gone and now we're even in a New Year. 

Boone still has the most beautiful blue eyes. At this point, he has many of us convinced that they're staying blue, but I guess we shall see! His hair still looks blonde sometimes with a red or brown tint to it, and there's still very little of it!

What a gift this boy has been!!!
