6 Month Man

This past Sunday, our little man turned a whopping 6 months old. I can maybe believe it's been 4 months, but it hardly seems possible that 6 months ago we brought our little one home.

We got to visit Auntie Katie and Uncle Matt and for a special treat my Aunt Susan and Uncle Duck paid a visit too!

In prime Durkin fashion, here he is, completely thrilled with the shadows on the rug. We very deliberately dressed him in the same pants that cousin Gabriel wore for his .5 photo. =)
Who doesn't love the hungry little caterpillar, especially when it comes in the form of a delicious rattle. Sandi, that's your shirt!


"And then what happened, Aunt Katie?"

"I like Uncle Matt. He's nice."

After a grueling workout of 1 push-up:


"Uncle Duck doesn't have a beard. I didn't know faces came like this. I think I might eat his chin later."

And, here is the now famous scene, just moments before Durkin tumbled backwards on his noggin. Tiiiiimber!

Blue Eyes

They say that if your baby still has blue eyes at 6 months, they will stay that way. Fingers crossed, because I'm in love with these baby blues!


Katie and I both agree that a baby is cutest in overalls. Here is one kind that Katie bought for us. He's almost grown out of them, so thank goodness we took some photos today.

6 years

Miss you, dad.

Happy Spring

This is how I entertain myself while mommy readies for work.
