    Six month old Joovy Walker

    Baby boy turned six months this week! I know it’s a common thing to say, but I really can’t believe how quickly time has gone by. His belly laughs are the sweetest thing, he is holding himself up on his hands and knees, and he loves scooting around in this walker. One of his favorite […]
