rollin jo

mommy and daddy made our hard floor soft for me to roll

i've been rolling all over the room in my spare time

i can really work my way around a room :)

sleepin jo

this is my new favorite sleeping position since i turned 6 months old
this is my friend Chelsea, she came a long way to see me

so i let her put me to sleep, she digs me

Ball Workouts

daddy got me a ball just like my mommys'

love the foot action

and some upper body

no pain, no gain

exercise fun!

i take care of this bod

i've added strength training to my already diverse cross training exercise regimen-

jogging, walking, swimming, kick-boxing, jumping, bouncing

working out is a fun part of my daily life- here, mom and i are doing fit and giggles

and i really do giggle while we do it! i'll share more soon...

be sure to take care of your shenti!

sittin up skills

i can sit up all by myself for a little while if i don't begin reaching for a toy or person or any random object to try in my mouth, here i am able to concentrate because the tv is on!

this is what i thought of cereal

at first, i was most interested in tasting my bib
i tried a dab here and there

day 3- i think i might like it

(or its new and tolerable for now)

happy 6 months old to me

i normally stick to sharing pictures for all you who love me
to celebrate my turning a half a year old i thought i'd write a little blog...

things about me (so far)
i don't do anything all that exciting yet- i roll over if i really want to, but the desire is not that often, i can scoot to get what i want but i dont' really understand how i'm scooting, i don't even really play with toys except to put them in my mouth, my favoirtie food-of course, mommy's milk, but i am soon to discover a world of other tastes and textures, i prefer to be carried in a front pack or sling over a stroller, i love baths, i am a man of habit- i like to bath each night before bed and sleep with my hands up in praise the Lord position in my bed for each nap and nighttime sleeping, i smile all the time, i love meeting people- i am very friendly and happy and energetic, which has proved to make me an excellent travel partner, i am very determined, stubborn, very expressive and talkative- i really have a lot to say (blugh..., da da, cooo...), i am a great cuddle buddie too, i am sweet, tender and loving (of course i'm getting benefits for acting such ways!), but seriously i love to be loved and get lots of attention.

in case you feel like you couldn't get all this from my pics, this is a jie shao about me
