Joaquin is 6 months and summer is around the corner.




Driving home after ballet.

First time eating sweet potatoes.

6 month check up.

Joaquin and his friend Alana.  Too cute!

She is so beautiful.

First day at the pool.

Things have been very busy at our house!  Where does the time go!  Joaquin is 6 months old and is sitting up and just started eating solids last week.  We started him with the usual sweet potatoes and he loved them.  It blows my mind how different boys are from girls.  Joaquin makes more of a mess then Tallulah ever did and he loves to grab things and put them in his mouth and just be more active.  He is such a boy! So far, he is not that into apples or bananas so we will see.  Joaquin is such an easy baby and is always smiling and happy.  He has been in his crib for a month and sleeps well.  He wakes up once around 2 or 3 and that is great for us! However, there have been a couple nights recently where he has been sleeping until 5.  Maybe as he eats more solids, he will sleep longer but we will see.

Joaquin just had his 6 month check up and he is 17.5 pounds and 27.25 inches long.  So he is growing but is a skinny guy but he is pretty heavy to hold so he is dense.  He is so strong so maybe it is all muscle :)

Tallulah has been loving her big girl bed and it is hard to believe she will be three in July.  She has become such a big girl and no longer a toddler.  Tallulah is starting her three year old ballet class in June and then a week of summer camp prior to starting preschool in the Fall.  She also wants to do swim and soccer but we will see.  We do not want her to be overloaded but she is so good at dance and music and also good at soccer so we will see what happens.

We have many things planned for the next months.  Mother's Day, Aaron's birthday, Father's Day, Auntie Andrea and Uncle Jeremy's baby shower for our little niece, Tallulah's birthday, our 10 year anniversary wedding celebration and then a couple vacations planned for August and September.  The time will go by fast but we are excited about all these awesome things to come.

One of the bigger things is that we are taking Tallulah to Disneyland for the first time coming up soon! Abuela and Auntie are watching Joaquin so we can spend the day with her at Disneyland.  Aaron and I are so excited to experience Disneyland through the eyes of Tallulah.  It will be such wonderful day.

We hope you are all happy and well.

Love,
The Bravos
