Half Birthday

Eli is 6 months old today! He shares his half birthday with his Grandma Anita :) I can hardly believe it's been half a year since he's come into our lives. Sometimes it seems like he was just born yesterday and other times it seems like he's been here for years! The past couple of days he's starting sitting up for extended periods of time on his own. And he's also been able to stay crouched in the crawling position (whereas before he would just immediately fall back down when I would try to prop him up). And I've also started putting the cutest little shoes on him (due to the fact that it's been cooler and he always takes his socks off:). So our little boy is already growing and learning so many things. And if we're lucky, he'll continue to scare me to death with how much he can do....
