I am AUSTIN

I took a few minutes to get some shots of Austin on his 5 month birthday. He is such a SWEET boy.


A few things about our MAN:
  • He LOVES his tongue. He sticks it out or chews on it constantly.
  • He is all SMILES and the HAPPIEST baby as long as you are directly talking to him.
  • If I put him on his belly her rolls to his back IMMEDIATELY. Austin may have been 10 weeks early, but he isn't about to be left behind.
  • LOVES windows.
  • If he's on the floor he picks up his bum and back and pushes his way around with his legs.
  • Austin tries to eat his WHOLE hand all the time. It makes the funniest noises.
  • He loves to go swimming in the tub.
  • He always calms down when MILLIE sings to him. His favorite is "I Told Every Little Star".
  • I get his BIGGEST smiles by making his legs RUN and talking in a HIGH pitched voice.
  • Austin wants to be STANDING constantly. Millie was the same way.
  • Best of all he is a MAMA'S BOY!

Austin I love you and I am grateful you are in our family. When I am having an unbearable day your smiles dry up my tears. Thank you.

he is so handsome!!!! Did you take those pictures yourself? I need to learn to take better pictures! I can't believe how well he is doing. My babies still don't consistently roll over and they are 1 month older than Austin!

ya, i took the pixs (i really need to set up photoshop! i just use picasa). there's good lighting in my dining room, so i pushed everything out and ploped him down. it was hard to get him to smile, he wasn't crazy about the hard floor.

I said it before, I'll say it again, you have skills! He is seriously adorable. I wish we lived closer so we could hang out with the kiddos. Happy 5 months, Austin!
