Look who's sitting up now! Drew is 6 months old now (oh my goodness I can't believe it!) and he is growing so fast! He had his 6 month check up yesterday and had a nice healthy report! Here are his latest stats: 18lbs 12oz and 26 3/8 inches long! He is now eating baby food and absolutely just can't get enough. So far he likes just about anything I put in his mouth!! We have been so blessed to have such a healthy little boy. He absolutely adores his big sister......his little face just lights up when she is in the room.
So we had another trip to the park yesterday too (I promise I won't post pictures on here all summer long everytime we go to the park!!). Drew is big enough now for the swings so I wanted to get some pictures of him swinging at the park for the first time! Madelyn was a "fairy" while we were at the park too. She wanted to wear her wings because she wanted to see if she could fly while she was swinging. I've gotten better about just going ahead and letting her wear her silly little things like this outside of the house (thanks to Sarah!!). Actually, it's just kind of cute and I know she will be out of this stage so fast and I will be wishing for fairy wings again!!
And finally, Justin is still puzzled on how he could have a child with blonde hair and blue eyes (for those who do not know Justin, he has black hair and almost black eyes and has a dark complexion). He says this all the time "How could he be so fair with blonde hair and blue eyes?"...and I'm like "Hello?! Have you seen my baby pictures?!!!" :-) So anyways, I think he does indeed get this from me. It never looks like he has hair in any of his pictures so here is a close up on his little noggin.....look close....you'll see hair! ha ha ha ha......

Tell Justin that it's the Youngblood in that boy! Uncle Lester had blond hair. Mama/Nanny had blonde hair. Your dad has blond/red hair. And blue eyes, well, you, your dad, me.
I love the fairy pictures. And the sittin' up pictures.
The fairy wings are absolutely adorable! He's getting so big!
I'm sure they both got bunches of awwwws, so here's another one: "Awwwww!" Drew is looking a little mischievous! Tell Justin Casey feels his pain! Maybe their dark genes are not as dominant as they thought.
The pictures of the kids are adorable. I would love for you to post pics of them every time you go to the park! LOL!
They are growing up too fast.
And tell Justin that even though Drew doesn't have his hair or eye color, he still looks just like him!
