Happy Half Birthday, Ryan! 6 months young today!

Dear baby boy,

Today is a very big day for you! I feel like we’ve reached a great milestone… your half birthday. It’s a big deal!

Ryan's attempt at crawling

I know it’s early for full-blown crawling, but Ryan is trying his hardest to slither across the floor. Or, climb over his boppy and face plant on the other side!
