Michael is Six Months!

Michael turned six months only a few days after family pictures, so we thought it would be a good time to take his six month pictures. At the time, Michael wasn't really able to sit on his own, he still had a very round bottom. In the pictures of him sitting, Jonathon was off to the side waiting to catch him if he lost his balance. I was worried that the sitting pictures would mis-represent him at this stage in his development, but it turned out that the next day he figured out how to sit on his own anyway... it must of just clicked.

The leaves were just beautiful on the day that we took these pictures. When we got Michael sitting there, he just wanted to play with the leaves instead of looking at the camera. It was only when he had one in his hand and was bringing it to his mouth that he looked up. One time, he actually got the leaf in his mouth right as we snapped a picture. He was not so pleased with how it tasted (apparently) and pulled the funniest face. I am actually glad that we got the shot!
