Sophia's baptism weekend

We all traveled to PA this past weekend to attend our niece, Sophia's baptism. We had fun visiting with everyone and especially finally meeting Sophia! Anthony got to meet and play with his cousin. I can't wait for Christmas because Sophia will be older and they will be able to interact more. Here are some pictures with the family!

Pictures from the weekend....

Tired Anthony waiting patiently for his pictures to be printed on Thursday night
Mom...its passed my bed time. Let's go!

1st time trying out his sippy cup.

I think he's using it more for teething

Anthony is 6 months old today :-)

Our little Anthony is 6 months old already and I can't believe it! He is getting so big and people don't lie when they say time flies by.....it really does. We splurged and took him to the Picture People lastnight for his 6 months pictures. They turned out so nice and I am surprised my scanner did a good job scanning these.
Anthony also had his 6 month appointment today. He weighs 18 lbs 4.5 oz and is now 26 inches long. He's finally getting longer! We hope you all like the pictures!

Outer Banks Trip

Anthony and I went to the Outer Banks from Friday morning til Saturday afternoon. My Aunt Loretta and Uncle Joe rented a beach house their all week, so we went to visit. Anthony was so good! We made the 3 hour trip to the beach without stopping. He did not cry at all and was so happy the entire time. On the way home, he started crying about 30 minutes from Raleigh, so I pulled over to check on him. I think he just needed a hug! We were back on the road in about 5 minutes and made it back to the house just in time for him to eat. Now it's time to relax!

Anthony's 1st football game

I always thought that Anthony's first football game would be a Penn State game, but we all ended up going to an NC State game today (This is where Matt will be going to college this January). Anthony was so good! We were in the Coca-Cola suite, which was really nice, so that's why we decided to take him. Here are some pictures from the game.

Little Swimmer

Today was Anthony's first trip to the pool and he loved every second! The weather was beautiful and not humid at all, so I thought it would be a good day to take him. I stopped at Target on my way to Sara's pool at her apartment and got him the turtle and a pack of little swimmers. He was kicking his little legs and had a great time.
