James is half a year old! Crazy how fast 6 months can go. We went to the dr. last week and James was almost 18 lbs and over 26 inches. He's definitely feeling taller lately. As I've said before, he's a very sweet boy and loves to be held and talked to. He thinks Kirk is hilarious, loves to let Oso lick his hands, and knows exactly what noises will get mom to pick him up. :) Still trying to crawl, if it weren't for his bulky cloth diapers I think he would be crawling, he does the best when he's naked!


He had his first fever last week which I think (hope) was related to his immunizations that he got, however kirk got sick the day after and I followed. It's been a sickly week for the Dahlgrens and we're praying it gets better and not worse from here on out. James is doing well though which is our main concern. We still don't have the H1N1 flu shot here otherwise we'd go get one for him. All that to say, we're sick but doing well.

side note: Kirk's truck is up and running!!!!!!!!!
