Robert's 7th Month

At the beginning of Robert's 7th month, we were able to get together with some of our best friends down in Richmond.  This was the first time that some of them were getting to meet Robert, and it was wonderful to visit and catch up!

Eddie meeting Robert for the first time!  This makes me so happy!

This too! :)

Oh it's so good to see these boys together!

We also got to meet sweet baby Kai for the first time!

Sure do love this sweet little family!

This is before the fire on the Japanese steakhouse grill...

And this is after!  Poor baby!

So then he sat with Mommy for a little while.

And the rest of dinner was lovely!

This is a beautiful thing!

Wesley gave the babies sweet hugs!

Then everyone watched Wesley dance

Love this boy!

Then Robert started making this face.

I tried to get some with the changing leaves of our Japanese maple, but it was a little too bright!  I'm definitely going to try this again soon.

Then when we were at Nana's, we got some pictures in a special family gown.  This was my Grandmother's family gown (worn as a daygown).

That porcelain skin is gorgeous!

Trying to break Papa's chair! ;)

This is reminiscent of a picture of me in the same outfit and chair.

And then a few in the bassinet

And on Papa's (my grandfather) blanket.

Grabbin his cousins' noses at the Woodstock fair.

I don't know when Jackson got this grown up and handsome, but it happened!

Looking at the piglets

Seriously our niece and nephews are good looking kids!!!  Here's Asher.

Madison

And Luc!

Robert was completely fascinated by the roller coaster!

Love my boys!

Sweet boy finally gave in at the end of the night.

Day 2 at the fair

Checking out the chickens! (Daddy's favorite)

He was spellbound

Love this face!

These boys fill my heart!

Finally got some obligatory nakey butt pictures!

Doesn't get much better!

Pretty puppy!

Look at that awesome tongue!

Ok... this series are all of him playing with the camera strap while I was shooting!  He is so crazy!

Talking... always talking! ;)

Then I got the idea to put one of Raymond's ties on him.  It's one of his favorite things to play with anyway!

He loved it!

He also needed to taste it a little.

Sweet, beautiful boy!

A few outside in the grass for his 7 month shoot.

Thanks cousin Emily for making this sweet outfit!

Later that day we took a new family picture!

And some Mommy-Robert shots

This is what we look like a lot of the time!

And this is my new favorite picture of my boy and me! :)

And of course, a few of my boys together!

I love the way my Love loves our Son!

Tala loves the boys too!

Love this, even with Tala's tail behind them.

This was all Raymond's idea!

He's a genius!

Love all of these!

Perfect boys in perfect light!

With his moose

These three are of him clapping :)

And we'll end with Superbaby!

It's hard to believe it's already October and our boy will be 8 months old in just a few days!  We're doing our best to soak in every little detail of what makes Robert Robert right now.  Thanks for keeping up with us and loving our little family from near and far.  Talk to you soon!
