Not always sweet...but always cute!

Since Gabriel will be 6 months old tomorrow (9/10) I was attempting to get some good pictures. I took him outside to the courtyard since it has the best afternoon light. I was determined to get some great pictures. Unfortunately my star was just not having it. I got a couple smiles but he wasn't his usual self, smiling at everything. He made me work! I could tell he just wasn't into it. I decided not to try and force it and just head inside. Gabriel was playing in his bouncer and I was around the corner when I heard the worst thing I could hear....grunting! Loud grunting! Gabriel decided to ring in his 6 month birthday with the biggest poop of his little life. I apologize for being so frank but this is afterall my baby book. I have to document all memories, cute and stinky. Needless to say he was a whole new man after the "event." Here are a few other cute pictures from outside. Gabriel was enjoying the breeze on his face. He smiled everytime the wind blew. Now that the temperature is cooling off we can start spending more time outside in the fresh air. Our bush was entertaining for a little while, but not as funny as when the wind blew the blanket onto his head. My favorite pants! How can you not like a puppy on the butt!
