Being baptized








We spent last weekend loving the gorgeous weather we were blessed with and celebrating a big day in the little man's life. I know, infant baptism to some is maybe not that big of a deal because the little ones really have no clue what's going on. Being raised in the Baptist church we had dedications but not infant baptism, not that different but a different none the less. I knew it would be sweet and Robbins would be adorable in his monogramed little number, but I had no idea the way the Lord would use our pastor's words to make me realize the gravity of who we are to this little boy and who he is to us. I was brought to tears when I was told that this is a covenant we are making with God to raise this child in a way that there is not a day that he does not know Jesus, no pressure right?! I was also overwhelmed when Carter looked us in the eyes and told us what a privilege it was to raise this child who was given to us by God. These past 6 months have gone by so fast and though I thank God for Robbins everyday, I have a new awareness of my need to pray for him. For his future, his heart, even his future wife. I am compelled by the Holy Spirit to intercede for him for the rest of my life and am honored to do it. All J.Ed and I want for this precious boy is for him to know God and Glorify Him forever, not much right:) I have been blessed with a husband who loves God in a way that his family will always know where he stands and I am so excited to see him teach Robbins how to do the same. Thank you so much to all of our friends and family for a wonderful weekend, we had so much fun celebrating with all of you!

6 month stats

Robbins had a great appointment yesterday. The Dr. said he is doing great in everything. He's sitting up really well and chatting like crazy! He put on quite a show, flirting with our woman Dr., laughing and smiling like crazy at her. He has started rolling around so much that I can't put him down and take my eyes off of him for a second b/c he rolls under the table, towards the door, all over. I am getting a little nervous about this mobility thing!

Head-18 inches-95%
Height-29 incehs-95%
Weight-21.6lbs.-95%
He's a big one but healthy, so that is all we care about!

Snow Day!

Steeplechase
A little unsure



Robbins and us got to experience our first big Nashville snow. We had about 8 inches or so. We went to go sledding with Jimmy and the kids but lasted about 10 minutes because it was just a bit to cold for little man!

Teething

So Robbins is teething big time. I can see those two little white peaks through the skin just taunting me. It hurts him so much especially at night and is making him super congested b/c of all the drool. So moms out there any suggestions? We have used baby oragel and stuff for him to chew on. I give him tylenol before bed but don't really like giving it to him other then that b/c he acts so groggy. Let me know if anything worked well for you!
