You may not know this.. but even babies have jobs in our house.
When I teach my eBay class I usually say something like that.. "I don't hire any employees, I give birth to them."
This little butter bean is a hat model for #1's Etsy business.
He doesn't mind it so much…
Except when she bop's him in the head.
(no babies were harmed in the writing of this blog)

This little muffin is 5 months old today. He has to be one of the best children I've ever given birth too (don't tell the others). At 5 months he talks or coo's non-stop. He loves green beans, sweet potatoes, bananas and apples. He loves to smile and to be "strolled" around the house by one of his siblings.
He's come a long way from when he was just a few days old here in the NICU. Just a little 4 pounder! Happy 5 month Birthday #6!
While having a philosophical conversation with #4… He wondered how we could tell if #6 was growing.
It was his idea to bring out "the card". To you this card may seem like a cute little reminder of a baby's stay at the hospital.. but to me, it's a reminder of the time we spent in the NICU. I sat in the rocking chair and that card was hanging on the wall across from me.
For weeks I went to the NICU almost everyday and stared at that card…
I think my problem is that It reminds me I had this little muffin 50 days early… by emergency C section. He doesn't look any worst for the wear now does he?
I don't think he likes to be reminded of that.
It doesn't seem possible.. but my baby turned 4 months old yesterday. I've been trying and trying to get a photo of him smiling. I don't remember it being this hard to get a photo of any of the other kids smiles.
Here he is reflecting about his new favorite food.. green beans. By the way that weird sponge-y purple thing he's in.. it's called a "bumbo" seat. The best $40.00 you can spend on a kid.
Why is this lady taking my picture AGAIN?
I realized I could not rely on my own to get him to smile.. so I brought in his big brother #2. He always smiles at him…
It worked! Happy Fourth Month Birthday #6!
