This past Saturday, Kaitlin of 2point5d.com took Silas' 6-month pictures. We started early (well, early for him) at 8:30am. The day before, Silas refused to take a nap at all. I mean, not a wink of sleep. We went to eat Friday night and figured he would sleep in the car and/or while we ate. Nope. So, on top of an early start Saturday morning, he didn't go to bed until 11pm the night before. WOW.
Surprisingly, though, Silas did really well Saturday morning. We had hoped he would bring his bubbling personality out, but he has some stranger anxiety (sorry, Kaitlin!) and is intrigued by cameras so he was in his "quiet observer" mode, as we like to call it. But, he was a trooper and endured about an hour of pictures, including an outfit change. Then, he put up with a couple of hours of running errands with us!
While we were out running errands, though, Little Bit started getting heavier and heavier to carry around. He's almost too big for his infant carrier (and that just adds even more unnecessary weight to lug around). We didn't have the Ergo with us and also didn't have our travel system stroller. We were shopping at BJs, and as we were going down the baby aisle we spotted this stroller. It was on sale, had a higher weight capacity, and was a lightweight stroller. Sold!
This stroller is amazing. I have been searching for lightweight strollers online and had the hardest time finding one, but this one is perfect! Alan put it together at our next stop that day. Silas LOVED it! He loved being able to see everything and kick his feet while we pushed him around. It made the afternoon so much better and more relaxed.
Here is a picture of him while we were in downtown Wake Forest:
He's so cute!
As soon as we get his 6-month photos, we will be sure to post these for everyone!
